Well. actually yes. FC5 has planned support to include additional yum
repos during the installation phase. So it might be possible to let the
user choose to install stuff from both core and extras. In a way this
helps in updating packages from a previous release if the package has
moved into extras. As of now, if a packages are moved from core to
extras, upgrading from the previous release will break it
