No one's suggesting replacing kickstart, actually I think we way
undersell it.  What I'm talking about is the mode where the image
boots directly into Anaconda as a complete OS should instead be a live
image with Anaconda as an application, which for the most part would
be the same except you'd gain the ability to run say Firefox (or any
other app; games), or do "yum install" during the install.
