I agree that it should be included but probably not as a default
application due to its Qt status. It just doesn't integrate with the
Gnome environment which is default in Fedora i.e. no Drag and drop
functionality as in KDE.

I think you're referring to Sketch. Again Sketch would be a better
choice over the KDE app.

Agreed - some good music/audio apps would add more depth to the packages
available and appeal to a certain niche.
