as said way too often:

Fedora is building an *operating system* and you can change packages, 
sub-packages or whatever you want - this leads not in a clean migration 
of hundrets and thousands of perfectly working enduser machines

it's impossible to do that automated for complexer setups with multiple 
NIC's, firewall rules, routings, bridges and bondig-setups in all sort 
of combinations nor do you anybady something good by forcing him to 
rebuild his configurations from scratch with all testing efforts
