Yeah. On the other hand, with Fedora's fast pace, leading edge nature, and
huge package selection, I feel like we're doing our users a disservice by
not providing some level of protection. 

What if we did security updates only, by default? (Right now, yum-cron
doesn't support this, so it'd be a F19 feature.)
