Yes, that's certainly doable, and I considered that -  but we'd also 
need to
rewrite sys-unconfig then.  It and sysidconfig are utter swill piles (do an
ldd on 'em sometime) and do need to be reworked.

Longer term we need to design the system so that an un-configured system
boots into a known state, including zones.  This way we don't need to write
specialized system admin commands to run during boot, and we need to rethink
sysidcfg(4) as well for automated installation.
