It could be done, but I haven't thought carefully about a design for it yet. I'm a little uncomfortable with launching a potentially machine-locking program like the XFree86 X server in the midst of an install. It's a lot nicer to wait until after the machine is installed to do such things. Nevertheless, I am open to suggestions. -- G.
