I would *really* love to see such a feature implemented in d-i. I do
understand that it is possible to do it after the installation is complete
but I would like that d-i would be able to leave the machine
completely installed without requiring some other post install setup,
at least for "simple" or "client" install.
If you'll start working at it, I would like to partecipate.
Bye,
Giuseppe
