THe initial startup of a gui, regardless of how its gotten too, should in my opinion bail back to command line and some kind of configuration helper if there is not a user-response within the gui within a pre-set amount of time. This way if the user or installer mis-configures X, they can regain control of the machine and try again. My reasoning is that if we make it easier to get that gui boot first time (as the above items strive to do), then there are more likely going to be problems with that gui boot.
