I understand the sentiment, but I think it does not benefit the 
project when it comes to Fedora's perception as a leading development 
platform.

Rawhide especially I'd love to see being adopted as a hotbed for early 
prototype and integration work (think: build me a package after every 
upstream commit, in the extreme), even for software that eventually 
might not make it.

Thanks for the feedback.
