In what situation would you ever have a system that requires neither
users nor root access? Or are you saying that root access would be via
SSH keys? I think it's probably a valid feature request to be able to
specify in a kickstart that the system should have no root password,
but I can't really think of an example where you are doing an attended
install and you wouldn't want at least one of the set of:
1) A local user
2) Joining a domain for centralized users
3) A root password
