Notice how "Initial Setup" briefly appears before the display manager is loaded

Description of problem:
After a clean Fedora Spin (be it any Spin) is installed on a system, with the root account disabled, Anaconda briefly shows "Initial Setup" before the desktop is loaded. Please see the attached video. When I tried it on a VM, it stayed for a good few seconds, but typically, when I install on bare metal, it typically flashes and disappears.

I understand that the window shows up in order to set up user accounts when the root account is enabled during a live install. However, it should not flash when the root account is disabled.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Perform a clean install of any of the Fedora Spins (with the root account disabled)
2. Start the system after the install.
3. Notice how Anaconda briefly flashes before the desktop appears.

Actual results: Anaconda briefly flashes before the desktop appears.


Expected results: Anaconda should not briefly flash before the desktop appears.
