Changing the semantics of /etc/fstab without any consultation with
fedora-devel or even notification of Fedora that something so
long-standing is changing is hardly constructive either.

I can happily live with "systemd is a new, better init system" without
knowing the details.  I consider "systemd replaces 15% of /etc and
changes semantics of another 5%" without discussing the details in
advance unacceptable for the distribution as a whole, although this
decision is of course FESCo's.
