We use uci-defaults/80_initial_install and 90_every_install and a regular init script called "every_boot"
that just use flags set in the system block of uci. (the initial install sets a flag) We do this for very similar purposes, to have a
default "factory" network setup, that we don't modify again, some checks that can run on every sysupgrade,
and some things that run on every boot.

Would this be sufficient?  Our "first install" script doesn't try and run before default networking, it
just resets things as it sees fit.

Cheers,
