This is not likely. This would be a substantial change to the most
basic configuration tools on the installation media and their default
interfaces. I would not expect to see a feature like that in an RHEL
release, and thus in SL, until after  all the kinks are worked out of
it in Fedora, and RHEL 7 and thus SL 7 is released.
