Bug Description

the subiquity of ubuntu 20.04 support new autoinstall mechanism.
It works when I mount seed.iso with cloud-init config file according to
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FoundationsTeam/AutomatedServerInstalls/QuickStart

Only one little question:
the installer will prompt for confirmation before touching the disk. It will interrupt the process of autoinstall

As document said: "Unless you interrupt boot to add 'autoinstall' to the kernel command line, the installer will prompt for confirmation before touching the disk."

So it's expected behavior, but for me, the autoinstall must be much better if I don't need to input the confirmation and also I don't need to modify official iso ubuntu-20.04-live-server-amd64.iso

Thanks
