I think fedup needs to to require specification of the product when
upgrading from Fedora 20:

 fedup
   Error message listing the products
 fedup --product=workstation
   You get Fedora Workstation
 fedup --product=server
   You get Fedora Server
 fedup --product=none
   You get a collection of pieces from the Fedora repositories

Without that or some equivalent that keeps people from accidentally
getting things that look approximately like Fedora Workstation but *are
not* Fedora Workstation, I'm definitely opposed to this change.
