How could this be done in Fedora anyway? Its one thing to stay the

It'd be trivial, in technical terms. Stick a different live image on the
download page, and change a couple of lines in comps to make a different
desktop's package set the default for non-live installs, and you're
done.
It'd be far too late to do it for F15, of course.
It's probably a FESCo or Board decision.
