You *do* realize that the fact you have some set of customers who
perform non-interactive installs does *not* imply that being able to do
so is a given, right?  The fact it is available and doable for your customers
does *not* mean it's available and doable in general.

There's a big difference between "the design has to deal with the fact that
some customers can do this on some subsets of hardware" and "the design
is free to assume that this is doable".
