I'm new here (been using Fedora for a few months, and lurking on this list a few weeks,  and looking for ways to get involved ).  Here are two ideas I like:

- a small watermark-like effect in the Gnome overview would to be both unobtrusive and hard to miss. 

- I like the 'know your rights' notification you get the first time you use Firefox. Perhaps there could be a "Thank you for using Fedora Workstation" notification message,  with the option to dismiss or learn more about what makes Workstation different,  and it only appears the first time you log in to a box.
