In the commercial desktop space, I would expect you would be using a
commercially supported distribution.  RHEL includes Acrobat, Flash,
Java, and RealPlayer.  Any other things you find missing should be noted
with your sales rep.

Alternately, if you are supporting Fedora as a commercial desktop, you
must already be doing a significant amount of long-term support (since
the Fedora "lifetime" is only 8-12 months).  In that case, you can add
the "missing packages" to your own custom distribution.

I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
