don't think it's unreasonable in the real world.
The commands themselves shouldn't change, but it's certainly possible -
and frequently happens - for something to change in anaconda or some
layer below anaconda which happens to have the effect of breaking a
kickstart directive.

I agree with Matt. Kickstart is not only a lowest common denominator it is a critical functionality for tons of our testing and deployment tools. We don't want revolutionary change in kickstart and we definitely cannot have it be broken. Slow, gradual change properly documented is critical for kickstart.

I'm less concerned about changes in anaconda's UI if I know kickstart will continue functioning.
