I'm not completely sure I agree with this but.

The fix I've merged for https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/subiquity/+bug/1632305 makes this less painful, at least.

cant you just put something like a .pid file in place and have console-conf check for it before it brings up the actual config UI (put it in /tmp, thats a tmpfs and guaranteed to be empty after a hard reboot) ? if another process already runs and created that flag file, simply go back to "please press enter"
