Comment(by dd32):

 Yes, The upgrade/install component tickets are auto-owned by me, since the
 component was seemingly designed for plugin/theme/core automatic
 upgrades/installs rather than WordPress Database Upgrade/Installing

 Theres a small gotcha to the idea of choosing the username though..

 Currently if the options table crashes, then WP will offer to re-install
 WP, it'll get to that screen and come up saying "Hey, the admin user
 already exists, So i'm not going to create you a new user and give you
 admin access!"

 > how hard would it be to be able to enter the tagline?
 An extra form field, and an extra update_option()..
