Is it possible to build an all-snap image with an customized OS snap?

Ah. It sounds like you want cloud-init, which runs on first boot and
looks for guidance ("from the cloud" but which can also be a USB stick
etc) on things like network configuration, user creation etc. We are
busy integrating cloud-init so we can great Ubuntu Core images on the
various public clouds, but the same mechanism would be useful in a
device context.
