It's not. 

However it's present but disabled once you install with any method
currently. All it takes now to enable it is to go in and
edit /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-rawhide.repo and change 'enabled=0' to
'enabled=1'. 

In PackageKit, it should show some text when you enable it, but either
the wording is not strong enough, or people are just clicking through
that warning to enable it anyhow.
