I've done this, it was a bad idea. Group Policy should be applied during the 
automated domain join.

Subject: [MDT-OSD] Adding GPO to reference image

Security has asked me about hardening our base image by adding our AD GPO 
settings to the reference WIM file.

I think this is unnecessary as GPO comes down as soon as the device is joined 
to the domain during the SCCM TS.

I was unable to find any articles discussing this approach.

Anyone have thoughts on why adding the same GPO's applied by AD locally to the 
reference image is a good or bad idea?
