Actually, what Fedora needs already exists: preupgrade

It just needs to be turned into a mandatory update tool with PackageKit. 
  Joe Enduser needs to be able to click "Update Me!" and go from Fedora 
9 to Fedora 10 with a single click.

Software moves too quickly today to have a "long term" distribution. If 
you need "long term" look at a commercial distro like Red Hat (Cent OS).
