NFS root

 Is there any reason why NFS root might not work in F18?

 A year or so ago, there was this discussion on a related list:

 http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/arm/2011-December/002433.html

 I'm wondering of NFS root would work with F18. Has anyone tried it?
 Does the default kernel support it?

 Or to put it differently:
 1) Has anything been done in glibc since then to revert the suid vs 
 file capabilities issue
 2) Has the NFS implementation been updated to include file capabilities 
 since then

 I'm guessing the answer to both is "no", but I figured I'd ask anyway.

 TIA
