I've got the opposite feeling. The Fedora Packaging guidelines are better
followed in extras, because the packages have had to comply with them before
core packages had to. Therefore fedora extras packages are most of the
time of better quality. And those that aren't are either packages that had 
a free go in extras from core or packages submitted before the guidelines
were achieved. (if you remeber which ones it would be helpfull, I guess ;-)

Maybe at some point there would be rebuilt of extras packages for RHEL 
(there are allready for centos) even though this is not supported by 
redhat.
