The problem isn't necessarily the speed of change but the amount of caution and attention paid to inform folks affected by such changes. It is a fairly simple change in this case but it affects more than just one component and not everyone is aware of the details in the first place. A simple announcement here or fedora devel announce list would go a long way.
