A good example of the weirdness here - we're declaring KDE 4.3 a 'Fedora
12 feature' (implying it's something sufficiently potentially
problematic that it needs a specific test plan and contingency plan),
yet backporting it to Fedora 10 as an official update meets with
widespread approval and 'nothing wrong with that!' comments...
