How would you suggest configuring out of the box on install for a server?

I don't believe it is reasonable to assume we can bridge eth0 and have that be the right thing to do. Perhaps we could find the nic for the default route, but that could be fragile especially in esoteric setups. Also, adding a NATed bridge is safe to do at any time, but taking the primary nic and turning it into a bridge during upgrade is not safe.

Is there an alternative?
