Both of these are off the proposed feature list.  The spec files are at

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeatureNewInit
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeatureBetterStartup

Dbus activation from Richard Hughes which is upstream now might as well 
get us the benefis of a new init system without really being one. 
Christopher Blizzard blogged about the idea behind this a while back at 
http://www.0xdeadbeef.com/weblog/?p=297

Better startup still requires more mode setting work on kernel upstream 
afaik.
