Since no-one seems to have had any objections to these, I have added
them to the Fedora 14 criteria, at the levels I initially suggested:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_14_Final_Release_Criteria
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_14_Beta_Release_Criteria

thanks again to Christoph for proposing these! Next step, I will add new
test cases (or modify existing ones) to make sure we test these
criteria.
