this is actually true of pretty much all cloud-images, at least that i'm aware. I've seen this functionally on every cloud image, all arches, since i joined CPC.

I think it's generally not considered a "bug" for cloud-images, as the standard user interaction is via SSH. for that use case, a user is not able to SSH into the image until cloud-init has finished provisioning SSH keys, and so most users will not have an issue.

I'm with vorlon on this generally -- if we view reaching the login prompt before user finishes configuration as a bug, it's a bug in cloud-init / systemd (with some sort of blocking mechanism therein) to disallow a terminal console from showing a login prompt. as far as a cloud-image, it's "operating as expected" though less than optimally.
