Definitely worth common bugs. This thing is actually quite pernicious.
If you happen to have many, or even a large ext volume, anaconda just
hangs waiting on e2fsck indefinitely with no opt out, and no status
why it's hung up. If this were known a few weeks ago I'd call it a
blocker for sure. I went ahead and proposed it as an F22 alpha
blocker. It might even be worth an updates.img associated with common
bugs, I can imagine some people won't easily be able to disconnect
drives as a work around for this - and that assumes they even figure
out what the problem is.
