FWIW, tbis is actually done every time, automatically -- you'll find a
kickstart file in ~root on the installed system.

Actually there was a huge amount of design work, all public.
Additionally, there have been significant improvments based on real

address UX problems that aren't immediately obvious but came out
through that process.
