Get maintainers to care about the deps they are breaking?  That's going
to take a system to do post-build tests and discovery of what the
change introduces, like "Hey, you just broke 400 deps, fix it?".  Work
is ongoing for a system like this.

We're only getting more and more complicated software in Fedora, not
less and less complicated :/

One thing we've got on the schedule is weekly snapshots after Beta.
This will give us hopefully weekly images that can be used throughout
the week to install against the nightly rawhide.
