Yes, but firefox in fc2 extras didn't have a special package name in
order to be parallel installable with another firefox in FC2, which
the release of FC3 would have to know about and specially obsolete.
In fact, FC2 didn't include firefox at all.  So none of the worries
here with a special openoffice.org2 package set apply.

Now, we certainly don't want to say that Extras shouldn't include anything
that might go into Core at some point; obviously that's ridiculous.
It is worth trying to have the package names in Extras be the same
package names that will be used if/when something goes into Core, though.
