I don't believe it's meant to. btrfs-formatted volume, yes, but not a
btrfs subvol. If it does that may possibly be a bug in itself.

Gene has been sending patches for grubby and anaconda to try and improve
btrfs support, and pjones is looking at merging them when he has the
time (it can't be his first priority ATM), so things in this area may
improve, but it'll be for F22, not F21.
