I'd say Anaconda *is* the right place to do this actually. At the moment, anyone who wants to generate generic images (docker images, ostree commits, VM images (vagrant/qcow2) etc) needs to[1] nuke this. [1] well, *should* since it's disingenuous to ship the same random seed to potentially many systems
