I was building my own image, using Foreman, Puppet and PXE. There's a
specific partitioning schema I'm required to use in my environment and
building my own image from Kickstart is by far the easiest way to
achieve this.
I can appreciate that in most scenarios the OVA install is the
best/easiest option, but it would have been nice to keep PXE and ISO
options.

Do you mean that you were customizing the image shipped via PXE?
Deploying from the OVA is pretty convenient, if you want just to forget
about it, you have to install also ovirt-engine-appliance rpm when you
install ovirt-hosted-engine-setup one.
I don't see other additional steps.
