We do make a point of making sure a matching spin-kickstarts package is
present in Final releases, but as Bruno says, it's a giant pain in the
ass to do so for Alpha / Beta and so mostly we don't.

What might be a _smarter_ way to do it might be to set up some kind of
cleverer mechanism for making the matching kickstarts available. It
seems like there should be some way we can have them injected into the
images and put on the mirrors as part of the compose process. But that'd
be a releng RFE, I guess.
