Description
I would love to be able to add kommand line options to the kernel on first boot. Mainly to force a kickstart install from image mounted in the cdrom.
If this is not easily possible today, consider it a feature request. I could not find any possibility in the documentation.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the role's documentation and current VM boot configuration to determine whether first-boot kernel options are exposed. Check how a kernel argument such as ks=cdrom:/ks.cfg could reach the VM and define completion as documented, working support for forcing a kickstart install.
