Heh.  I was only half-kidding.  My point was that Fedora (for the
purposes of graphics at least) is more like an individual developer's
(or small group's) work tree that just happens to be available
publicly.  If you think of it that way, it kind of makes sense that
some changes it includes aren't pushed upstream right away.

But I fully admit it's a bogus excuse and a fairly cheap shot at
Fedora. :)
