Comment (by adamwill):

 technologv: we're well aware of the limitations to how much 'support'
 Fedora and VBox can possibly have for each other given the policies you
 mention, but that's really okay. What we want from a QA perspective is to
 know with certainty whether VBox is working when we do a Fedora
 (pre-)release, to know what issues are preventing it working if it's not
 working, to document those issues together with any potential workarounds,
 and to file them with the appropriate project if they are issues that are
 actually amenable to being fixed.

 The existence of test cases does not imply that we require or even expect
 VBox to be working. That's not the case. Rather, we just want to be
 systematic and consistent about knowing whether or not it's working, and
 if not, why not.
