My point exactly!
If I can steal your attention for the moment and point you to these two bugs;
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=236881
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=416396

I have suggested an way to "easy flash player install" as a fix for
this but it is not getting any attention. To me it looks like there is
no will for this to be fixed/usable for general users... instead they
are "forced" to google and ask around how to get the basic
functionality like watching youtube videos (or FedoraTV) on Fedora
Desktop... I believe this should JustWork or as close to it as
possible.

This is the idea:
Can there be a script on Fedora desktop that says something like this:
"Install Flash Player" that enables adobe yum repository, presents the
licence and if users agree goes
out and install the flash plugin.
