rpmbuild could implement itself all the stuff that is the same in Fedora's 
specs:

- a sane default buildroot definition
- Cleaning $RPM_BUILD_ROOT itself in %install (and without any race condition)
- A default %clean section with rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT
- %defattr(-,root,root,-) per default in %files

This would save at least 5 lines in nearly every spec of Fedora.
