1) When are we going to see removal of the EXT2 /boot partition? It is
no longer required, as the boot process has been able to use

years now.

I'm not advocating removal of support for a filesystem type, but for
removal of the mandatory and unnecessary EXT2 boot partition. EXT2 will
probably still be usable 50 years from now, but that does not mean that
we still need an EXT2 partition to be part of every Fedora install.
