Why not make it part of the installer?
Present a screen at the end of the installation that briefly
explains the idea, and then let the user chose to view the
information about to be sent, refuse to send it or simply accept to
send it. This of course requires the machine to be connected during
the install, which is not a problem during ftp-installs but might be
a problem for users installing from cd.

Or, currently, any machine with a wireless NIC, since sysinstall does not handle ifconfig wireless settings well or wpa_supplicant settings at all. One of the most common family of cards, the Intel PROWireless series, requires a firmware blob that AFAIK can't be legally packaged with the CD.
