I think we should rather take a loooong thought and add to FirstBoot one screen for selecting services, which would be easy and simple to use. You would have there a combo with Desktop/Notebook/Server choices, and some checkboxes for optional services (but with sane names). I can imagine that as nobody needs bluetooth on server, on Desktop nearly nobody needs running power manager, etc. We should take a thought and decide what services should be enabled by default and what services should be easily available for user enabling during first boot (most likely the cups one, but MUST be called something like Printer Support).
Actually my feeling is that we should get rid of as many firstboot screens as possible and just pick reasonable defaults. The tools are there if a curious user needs to adjust something. So much of what we ask is just silly.
Yes, most ARE, but the one with services could be useful. There is a batch of services that are useful on most of notebooks, but are unneeded on most of Desktops/Servers and vice versa. And we'd like to get rid of as much unneeded services as possible, so if we target the default ones with a thought of the target platform, it would be IMHO more effective. Maybe it could go to anaconda, but personally I think that first boot is better place for that.
