Absolutely. Care to ask the Server WG how are they going to name their
comps?
I know it sounds like bikeshedding, but we can't really proceed without a
name,
and changing the name later might be problematic.

I think that the most ideal setup would be to have one group named
fedora-workstation and another named fedora-server.

In my opinion we don't need to change the current Anaconda UI like you're
suggesting:
Workstation will be installed from Live where you don't have package
selection, while Server will be installed (probably) from DVD.
We can have the DVD default to Server, and people could still change it in
the current Anaconda software selection, or however the Server WG wants to
handle this.
