I completely agree with Piotr. With Czech it is the same - if you put
everywhere just Fedora (in the basic form), it looks bad and sounds
strange (and it is not gramatically correct). Moreover, I don't see any
big advantage in using such entities - I am afraid they would just make
things more complicated.
