For Red Hat docs, we have a special "no borders" theme to switch to when
taking screenshots.  We could certainly that, although it's an extra
step and more process.

As Paul points out, when we discussed this in the past, we decided to go
with the out-of-the-box theme when screenshooting the OS and
installation.

It's not as clean as no borders, but it's easier to do, easier to
explain to people how to do it, and it looks like the installed version.
Even if people change their theme, the constitency of the theme from the
installed version will let them know where they stand.
