I think you're projecting. Command line options do not hold grudges.
But what happens with F22? Will they Shanghai all us KDE users and
force us to switch to GNOME, or else get out of the Fedora
community?
No. Why on earth would we want either of those things?
Where is the option to specify KDE as a Product?
See:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora.next#What_makes_a_.22product.22.3F
and, older,
http://fedoramagazine.org/fedora-present-and-future-a-fedora-next-2014-up...
As for upgrading, there's no particular _reason_ to need a KDE-specific
option at this point, but if in the future the KDE SIG would like to
increase differentiation from the defaults in a way that would make it
useful, an option could be added.
I chose KDE for a reason: GNOME is just plain too confusing when it
comes to "switching a user." For that reason, and a whole host of
pleasant discoveries of how well KDE replicates another environment
with which I am familiar, I chose KDE beginning with F12. And I
never looked back.
Cool. KDE is great, the Fedora KDE community is awesome, and the Fedora
KDE spin is top-notch.
