What is *not* in the proposal and should be added is a clarification
whether Fedora RPMs or Flathub flatpaks take precedence, when both

Flatpaks already take precedence over RPMs, and there are no plans to
change this for the reasons I mentioned in my previous mail regarding
sandboxing, which is more important than other considerations.
As mentioned previously, GNOME Software can be configured to prefer
RPMs over Flatpaks, but it cannot currently be configured to allow
arbitrary orderings: that would require additional design and
development work. Users can always have the final say if they wish to
explicitly select the installation source when installing the app.
