You're not missing anything.  We did this for x86_64, it shipped as the 
release+updates.  So long as you're composing your spin from say FC7 shipped 
srpms, and FC7-updates shipped srpms, there shouldn't be a reason you can't 
call your arch release FC7.

I'll reply to David's post when I have more time, just do note that we will 
_not_ make any changes to any arches until the shadowbuild feature is in 
place and functional.
