Not really, it's totally unrelated as the Windows portion is apparently a limitation of the grub-mkconfig script, so I'd say it needs to be posted to one of the grub lists, either help or devel. Probably help. Maybe support is in upstream but not in the Fedora package.

Is this Windows 8?

I think that bug and screen shot need to go upstream for sure. I'd file it in the savannha.gnu.org bug reporter, and then cite the bug in help or devel grub lists.

What's weird about this is that you're getting a boot failure after successful installation, which necessarily uses GRUB2 to boot UEFI hardware, and it's the same GRUB2 used to boot the installation.

There's a debug line you can add to the grub.cfg, and possibly you'll get more information after the error but before the hang.
