I disagree the QA vote should be sufficient to deem the feature not 
complete thus Anaconda would be subjected to their contingency plan.

As I have mentioned before on this thread if the plan is to extend 
installer initrd with the rescue mode or a have separate grub entry with 
rescue initrd ( or rescue mode in some other form ) we need testable 
spin with that solution in the installer ASAP so we can test if that can 
work as an acceptable solution to use in F18 however if the plan is to 
drop it we can cast a vote on next meeting.

What we need now is to actually hear from the Anaconda team what they 
are planning to do...
