Although if we go ahead with providing the auth and permissions disabled 
mode, we wouldn't want FreeIPA to be a package dependency -- on top of 
that we wouldn't want to depend on that at the package level since 
FreeIPA would still be on a different guest/host in some instances.

However, this non-security mode will make the 'yum install ovirt' case 
even easier than FreeIPA RPMs since all you'd need to do to run the WUI 
is to disable the kerberos auth and set the "turn security off" config 
param (and the standard db setup, etc. of course).
