I'm not sure the change is really necessary...the text says 'all
supported interfaces'. If what's officially 'supported' for newUI is
graphical, VNC and possibly text, then the criterion is correct without
modification.

Practically speaking I read the criterion as meaning that all offered
interfaces must work. So the onus here is really on the anaconda team to
do something fairly simple - don't allow users to trigger any modes that
won't work. Only the working modes should be exposed via any kind of UI
choice, kernel parameter, kickstart parameter etc: none of those things
should let you kick off an installation using an interface that won't
work. CCing clumens for that.
