Finding the correct technical solution to the problem in Fedora should
be paramount.  After a good non-hackish solution which folks here
agree upon has been implemented, you can then approach the RHEL
engineers.

Keeping reasonable technical fixes for real problems out of Fedora
simply because the EPEL/RHEL interface may have additional issues is
counterproductive.  If the RHEL engineers won't accommodate the
technically preferred solution, then you can raise that issue here or
with FESCo or the board if necessary.  Do you even know that they
object to a reasonable solution?  Have you presented it to them?
