[Bug 1066818] Re: config changes during the install process do not affect installed system

Well... we leave the settings menu, just in case somebody does need to
configure the screen, keyboard, network etc to actually use the
installer.

But, none of these will propagate to the installed system, as by-design
installation  experience is "try it, touch it, feel it" and it is not
meant to be persistant or "transferred" to the installed system.

I added needs-design tag, as I'm not sure what to do here. Hide
settings? Leave it as it is? Something else...?
