Question:  Is there a 'deferred' state these kinds of issues can be moved to?
That might be an acceptable middle-ground so that issues are maintained, yet rational is provided for why they are not worked in this release.

Just a thought.

It is about discussion to accept this change. If there will be lot of
opinions against this change, we will let it be as it is and anaconda
will have to make their best to bring rescue mod. We can also change
this criterion. It's on discussion. Note that those changes are
hopefully only for F18. In F19 there should be everything back.
