Have the Fedora developers ever considered modifying the installer to allow for an installation method similar to the Archive and Install approach used by Apple in MacOS X? http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/archiveinstall.html I believe most Fedora users would find such an installation option very helpful since you could be certain to retain the key configuration settings for Linux and the user accounts while making certain that the major system directories were effectively given a clean install.
