Oleg, we should be able to automate and include what Gleb suggests. I think it could solve a particular deployment case where we want to set up a separate node to do some monitoring or profiling task. The way we configure cobbler today doesn't include a default vanilla profile. You must configure the node via fuel first before it can be provisioned.
In addition, I believe we could benefit from a minimal profile that installs common libs that will be useful, like all OpenStack client libs and vim. Feel free to elaborate here.
