Could you write a draft for consideration by the packaging committee?
List it in http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/DraftsTodo
and the committee will take a look.

Please be sure that the draft provides sufficient information on how
reviewers can detect and how packagers can avoid the behavior you
would like to discourage.
