I wasn't sufficiently clear; I was proposing only to carry additional
builds from the shipping kernel source, not to pile on additional
patches.  In my case I just need to tweak a single config setting.  I
had hoped that we could get additional configs into the stock Fedora
SRPM and then just build them for Extras, perhaps even automatically.

I suppose it's a slippery slope.  It makes little difference to me; I
have to build the kernels anyway.  But these machines aren't exactly
rare, and I'm not the only person who wants to run Fedora on them.
