It could.  I don't think we're quite to that level of detail yet though.

I doubt this is really specific to anaconda.  I don't think they want
to create a separate installer for all the products and they are going
to need those dependencies on the install media to accomplish installs
for other products.  
My idea was to conditionally load those libraries. If they are not present, disable enterprise storage support in the UI. Sounds not too complicated.
That doesn't mean the enterprise-class packages
need to be _installed_ on a Workstation install though.
It does, at least if we continue do live installs the way we do them now (rsync)
