That is also an acceptable outcome. What is not acceptable is the
current status quo. We either ask our users what they want and do that,
or very explicitly state "This is Fedora, this is what is does, this is
who are userbase is, and this is what we offer".

I am open to either outcome, and I am not immovable, but I am tired of
seeing discussions wherein there seems to lack a clear focus.
