I think the network install mode of anaconda that is already there
serves a similar enough purpose for anyone who wants to use a network
as part of the install process. And don't forget about the much
maligned mininal install option.
A more advanced one CD bootstrap that gives you a usable desktop is a
tough target to meet. I don't want to see the rescue environment
being ditched to make room for a 1 CD desktop install. I think its
vitally important to keep a usable rescue mode available as part of
every self-contained piece of install media that's going to be
offered.
