In the wake of the BZ 1924808[1] discussion in Thursday's Go/No-Go meeting[2], I am proposing an addition to the Basic Release Criteria[3]. This would go into Post-Install Requirements -> Expected installed system boot behavior -> First boot utilities (appended after the existing sentence):
If a utility for creating user accounts and other configuration is configured to launch, it must be visible within 10 seconds of the first boot reaching the launch point.
Why 10 seconds? Why not? That sort of feels like the maximum length of time someone could reasonably be expected to wait. A shorter time might be better.
I don't particularly love the wording here, but I wanted to make it clear that it's not 10 seconds from power on, but 10 seconds from the time the boot up reaches the state where we expect gnome-initial-setup or its counterparts to appear.

I like it.
Can we also add a "and displayed without error" clause, or maybe "completes with no visible error"? Something to explicitly capture the "sad face" bug[0].
We actually have this already, pretty much, for Final:
"There must be no SELinux denial notifications or crash notifications on boot of or during installation from a release-blocking live image, or at first login after a default install of a release-blocking desktop."
It was envisaged to cover desktop notifications, but I'd say it seems reasonable to count it as covering the "Oh no" screen too.
