The preset logic is actually already available in F17, so we could
theoretically backport that, but this would mean we'd also have to
create and maintain a preset policy file for F17, and that's the bit I
am not sure i'd like to do.
Without the preset policy the macros would only turn things off
after
installation, never on.
What I would want to see in F16/F17 is macros that exactly duplicate the
previously-standard snippets they are supposed to replace. Nobody is
suggesting that the preset stuff ought to go into the released branches;
only that we don't want to have to maintain different specfile versions
for the different branches. And if these things are macros, we should
not have to.
