I'm unsure about whether this makes sense for new installs or not, but I 
feel my objection in
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Talk:Features/tmp-on-tmpfs was not taken into 
account at all. :-/ Forcing this change on upgrades will leave users with 
wasted disk space they cannot easily reclaim. (For us technical users, 
reclaiming it will be complicated, for non-technical users, it will be 
impossible.)
