I like this option.  As someone who installs the beta of OOo-2.x I would
much prefer to see OOo-2.x in FC4 (because it's better) than OOo.1-x.

As I see it, given that FC is a download only distro, I'm all for the
occasional inclusion of pre-release software.  If you want totally
solid, you shouldn't be using FC (IMHO).
