It might be difficult to do that, but I agree that sending the UUID at
the first successful *graphical* login (for desktops) is certainly an
important metric.  (A console login doesn't say anything about a
successful desktop install.)

OTOH, how do you detect the difference between login after a successful
install and login after fixing a unsuccessful install then?
