Nope, the issue was brought up because we already know what Fedora
users use.  What Red Hat tell them is good for them.  (Actually, ext3
is the default for historical and stability reasons.)

Some users use other OSes shockingly enough; more suprising is that
they don't always like ext3.  (You might say they are impatient, and
want their files faster.  They call this 'performance', which confuses
me.)  It's been mentioned that statistics on that (Just like with
SELinux) would be interesting.

I think we just need a 'modify what we send link' and then a list of
checkboxes to disclude information.  This way it's there,
configurable, etc....

Anything else would be tricky.
