Hi all,

Interesting tool. Hadn't seen it before.
I've also been working on a similar feature for the Atomic
image (although it should work just fine for the Base images
as well if we want). Basically, it adds a new boot menu item
labeled "Developer Mode" (working title ;) ).
It's meant for users with little experience (e.g. don't know
anything about cloud-init or how to use Vagrant, or even
Linux in general) or for those who want to "kick the tire",
so to speak.
When booted in Dev Mode:
- cloud-init is configured to set a password for the
cloud-user and root accounts
- tty1 is automatically logged in as root with a tmux
shell set up
- cockpit is automatically downloaded and started and
a URL is printed out for users to open in their
browsers.
There is a card on the platinfra Trello board for this work:

One advantage of this approach is that everything necessary
is encapsulated in the image, so there are no pkg (or even
OS) requirements on the user env (other than being able to
boot the image). But it does require a small kickstart
tweak as well as a new package added.
Cheers,
Jonathan
