This feature proposes new initial setup application with better integration to the NewUI anaconda and to Gnome Initial Experience.
== Detailed description == Since the Anaconda installer moved to the NewUI Hub and Spoke concept, we can reuse much of it's architecture and screens in the after reboot configuration utility -- initial-setup. So the idea behind the firstboot replacement is that we will have a new app that will use the same Hub and Spoke model and the same API as Anaconda.
This will give us the possibility of letting the user configure his system either during the package extraction or after reboot (important for OEMs). It will also allow other teams (power management, security team, IPA) to prepare their own screens for Anaconda and initial-setup and so further enhancing the user experience.
Anaconda, initial-setup and Gnome Inital Experience will communicate to ensure the screens are not shown multiple times. So for example the root password setup or user creation process will be done only in one place, depending on the installed system.
The old Firstboot will still stay as a fallback in case somebody still has his old Firstboot plugins he needs to use.
