Actually, it's pretty trivial to write a post-setup executable to do this, and add this to the Setup Wizard install - under Win3x-WIN3S or Win9x, a call the the ExitWindowsEx() API call, as documented in the FAQ, should do this.
The Setup Wizrd should be able to detect any components that it installs requiring a reboot and trigger it to do so unless command line switches are added to prevent the reboot when firing Setup.EXE
