this begs the question, and you knew I as going to ask ;), if Fedora
wants to reach the 5 second boot that is quite possible on this
hardware, even without too insane compromises.
(which translates to something like 2 to 3 seconds on a full sized
laptop-with-ssd)

If not, I would regret that but it's not something I would have to live
without; I can get a fast boot myself quite fine. 
If so, something needs to happen NOW for F11, with a real serious push
for this. It'll involve quite a few people and quite a few packages
that need to get things right, but it's not at all impossible nor does
it require impossible-for-fedora compromises.
