You guys made me think about the actual use case: noob user of OpenBSD,
installs the ISO, never gets to have any pkg.conf by default.
A way to handle that case would be to have non-network iso *installs* put
a pkg.conf that says "hey we didn't configure anything, let's do that later".

I get it.
It makes sense for installing the base system.
We started using it in pkg.conf. I am no longer sure that is the
right thing to do.
Speaking to the installation backend all the time worries me.
this is the exact same code that s currently in install.sub

No, that is not what miniroot/install.sub does. Not at all.

I agree with Ted. This feels very much like building a CDN at the wrong
level, considering how slowly and carelessly the mirrors are updated
at this time.

Here's an expanded version of the patch.
So far, ask_list was happy with prompting, but the mirror list is slightly
large, so being able to pipe thru more comes in handy.
This means a bit of refactor: we've got state, so we can get the height
from a progressmeter (or the stub), and it's
Most of the code was already there.
This would allow pkg_add to auto-configure a mirror, for the case where
PKG_PATH was not specified and where pkg.conf does not exist.
It only triggers when a location ends up empty and when run in interactive
mode, e.g., it shouldn't interfere with local
