These changes look good to me, thanks for the feedback. :)

I'm not exactly sure what you mean here, it was always my intention to
support VLANs on bonding devices (and by request, also bonding several
VLAN devices together).
Creating a device named bond0.10 should add VLAN 10 to bond0. If this
stopped working, that's a defect. ;)

Just to let everyone know of test plans, things seem to be working well,
though I'm going to be doing a fair amount of testing on physical
machines starting Thursday.
I encountered some network problems (unrelated) on F9/libvirt with
virtio and/or NetworkManager-enabled-Anaconda yesterday and need to do
some more extensive probing on that. Physical installs worked fine
though I am due for some testing on machines with multiple NICs.
The output from the kickstarts looks good to me.
I will updating the cobbler/koan test RPM today as I likely want to
spend another week looking this and everything else over. I should
stop promising dates though this looks like it means 12/19 (or a bit
earlier) for 1.4
Everyone can help move that 1.4 release up by helping test the test
release (using the new sample kickstart files as well as your own, and
also making sure there are no regressions) when I push out the new test
release RPM.
Thanks!
