reasoning being that `localhost` is a bad hostname for auto-discovery
protocols (think `avahi`) that are useful for more desktop

In retrospect, that pretty clearly should have gone through the system-wide
change process. Oh well.
I'm not fond of "fedora" as the default hostname — leaving aside my
"Fedora
is the _project_" windmill-tilting, it's just not likely to be unique. But I
think this proposal (which includes just keeping that) is reasonable enough
for now.
