If "parallel availability" is the problem Modularity is trying to solve, it 
seems that Modularity is a failure. You can't install more than one version of 
a package at once.

Anyway, this is off topic, in my eyes, the best course of action is to simply 
require that all modules have a non-modular version in Fedora. This can also 
be done for things that are currently default modules. Sure, those who have 
existing installs with modules won't get their install fixed with the current 
code, but new installations would. That's a start.
