'Network' would fit nicely with 'Language', 'Storage', and 'Privacy', as
it is common to include network configuration in an install/boot/startup
flow. However, in our case, it might also be appropriate to have
network configuration be some heads-up option in the desktop
environment, as many people choose not to use networking, especially at
boot, since they might want to ensure firewalls or monitors are properly
working.

These are cool and could fit nicely in the Guided Configuration dialogs,
should 'Networks' appear in the Greeter. Otherwise, we can figure
something out.

Yay! The first one has a quote that is the topic of two discussions on
various lists, detectability; though I don't know enough to yet
determine if they can go anywhere.

Sure. The block of instructions, starting with “Step 1/n”, would first
need to be organized and refined, then some wires built on that and the
flow you have included.

I would like to hear from others as to the scope and feasibility of
this, as it could impact what we have been trying to wrap up for
testing, or not, depending on thoughts.
