Forgive my ignorance, but I thought the idea of a deploy <machine>
environment type was to allow fully provisioning the OS via the service

I haven't reviewed the change yet; perhaps you mean that currently such
provision must happen by going through the rescue system path (but is
still automated by this new environment type?)
