And actually how the heck would this even work at a technical level?
There's no networking in firstboot because NetworkManager isn't set
up.

Both the half-baked mini-operating-systems we ship (standalone
anaconda and firstboot) really need to die...

And also, unless you truly *force* people to have a valid login, you
still need to handle the case in the UI where there's no Fedora
account set up already, so components of the UI like ABRT and
PackageKit need the just-in-time functionality *anyways*.
