Beta sounds a bit late to be introducing such a change unilaterally. Should this not be going through FESCo at this point?
Then I suggest that we make the change immediately for Fedora 25, to allow it to be included in the delayed alpha release.
It will absolutely not be accepted as a Freeze Exception. Changes of this scale are far too high-risk and will almost certainly result in another schedule slip.
I'm having a hard time following the argument of scale and risk here when it pertains to schedule slip. The package itself is fairly self-contained and isn't likely to cause issues against the actual Alpha test criteria. Can you elaborate why you think doing this as an FE would cause a slip?
