  i'm not sure that i'd deliberately install everything given the
opportunity, but i have to think that a choice like that would be a
terrific stress test for the installation process -- perhaps a hidden
choice that says, "activate every possible fedora repository and grab
*everything*."

  i'm sure the installation team must have a secret setting like that.
