You don't need to compile kqemu into the kernel. When I install dkms-kqemu from freshrpms, I do NOT rebuild my kernel. I am fairly certain with Fedora's new policy for extras, there would not be much of a problem getting it added to Fedora. For that matter, it could probably get added into the new Enterprise Extra's repository as well. However, someone would need to volunteer to maintain the package.
