We always tried not to live under that rock (sometimes more successfully,
sometimes less). 

# yum grouplist
Available environment groups:
KDE Plasma Workspaces

But let's go back to the topic - we really want feedback on proposed
product...

A bit of background: when Fedora decided to create products instead
of universal all catch in Fedora distribution - Workstation, Server and
Cloud  products were proposed - the question if more products are 
allowed appeared. From discussion so far, a lot of folks prefer to
have only three main products and then specific products aiming 
specific use cases. Call it politics or whatever (for several reasons,
I'm not going to explain it here). So we decided to listen to this
hint and started working on Fedora Plasma product. It's not a pure
KDE general use case spin but adds bits on top of it and focus on
educational and scientific use cases. We believe it's the way how
to make sure KDE/Plasma/Workspace/whatever will stay relevant within
the Fedora Project.
