Bz1103884 would cover "checking" the right repos are enabled.

But I'm not sure how we could select in advance. If you are at the point where you have the satellite-installer package installed, then I'm pretty sure you have the right repos enabled - the satellite & satellite-installer package has dependencies on basically everything in the product.

Please reopen if that's incorrect, or have an idea about how we could do the selection with satellite-installer, but I don't think we can fix it in our software.

This seems more to me like an issue across the red hat portfolio of products that could be fixed somewhere like subscription-manager, where one could easily say 
"subscription-manager --enable-product=satellite6" or "subscription-manager --enable-product=rhev" and have it do the right thing.
