Well. actually yes. FC5 has planned support to include additional yum 
repos during the installation phase. So it might be possible to let the 
user choose to install stuff from both core and extras. In a way this 
helps in updating packages from a previous release if the package has 
moved into extras. As of now, if a packages are moved from core to 
extras, upgrading from the previous release will break it
