#8927: calling home during install

Comment(by jidanni):
I see, it is not a plugin, but a replacement dashboard, three years
old too.
Anyway, all I'm saying is there needs to be a choice one encounters
upon installing WordPress, that allows one to opt out of all those
network connections from day one even before they start for the first
time. Just like MediaWiki would never think of connecting, (but
MicroSoft would!)
Or they could just opt-in to checking for newer releases.
The way it is now, there is no choice to turn such things like that
off. Totally MicroSoft.
P.S., Trac has no choice to set version = 2.7.1.
