Comment (by walters):

 The thing, the whole point of this effort is to containerize.  Anyone who
 wants the traditional "one set of packages" model has plenty of other
 options *within Fedora*, such as Fedora Server and Fedora Cloud Base.

 There's also the aspect that even if we add cockpit into the tree in an
 update, anyone who does an initial install won't get it, so there will
 still be issues with that.

 Finally, while Fedora 21 shipped with it enabled by default, I'm a bit
 hesistant to ship a new service that listens on the network by default in
 an update to Fedora 22.  It's very reasonable for organizations to
 evaluate a "gold" OS configuration, perform some customization including
 turning on/off services, setting up firewalling etc.  These types of
 deployments would be unhappy to have new services appear.

 (It's actually not completely easy to simply blacklist all services,
 because it's reasonable for e.g. nfs-utils to include a new internal
 service, and if you then disable it by default, you wouldn't want to break
 NFS.  This is more about services which listen on the network)
