Not only I assumed best intentions, I did say I like the idea and that I
think It's a good idea. Kudos to Matthias for doing it.
We just need to change it to fit to our logo usage guidelines, and perhaps
adjust it further so when we finally release Fedora it'll be as beautiful
as possible.

I really think this is a good time to split this thread, because we have
two issues at hand:
1) We need to change (a bit) they way this dialog looks
2) We need to devise a policy for usage of the Fedora logo inside the
Fedora operation system.

While both these things are related, having them both in the same thread is
confusing.
So, please continue discussion related to how this dialog should look (and
which logo file it should use exactly) in the Desktop list, and discussion
about the logo usage policy in the Design list.

Thanks.
