Okay, as a slightly more detailed version:

You should follow the full feature process, to be put in the
FeatureList for F18.  If you want to see what that process looks like,
you probably want to look at this diagram:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Policy/Process

And make your feature page according to the template noted on that
wiki page, and submit it to the feature wrangler (via a wiki category
change) so that they can have it approved by fesco, at which point it
can be added to the actual feature list :)
