Here's what I'm thinking...
Converting from vanilla to and from productized Fedora is a separate issue
from upgrading. It's something that someone might want to do at any point,
and it's something that we'll want to have beyond just the F21 release.
I can see the convenience value of letting people check a box or give a flag
at the F20->F21 upgrade point. I wish we had thought of that several months
ago, but I don't think anyone did (or we dropped it if it were mentioned,
sadly). At this point, since the fedup maintainers aren't sold and we're
working on validating the beta already, *and* because the upgrade-to-convert
situation is a one time thing, I think we should put our efforts into the
convert-at-any-time situation.
