 understand you may not feel labeling is *enough* delineation.  I would
 encourage some better language here, though, and that if you don't want to
 dictate implementation, don't. :-)

 What about:

 "The Council recognizes including select third-party non-free software in
 search results is a valid experiment to advance Fedora's mission. Search
 results should prioritize free and open source software, clearly specify
 that there is no endorsement, and offer links to Fedora-prepared
 educational information. Additionally, default configuration in Fedora
 Editions and Spins must not show non-free search results initially without
 an additional user interface action. This action need not be onerous, can
 be persistent, and the interface can indicate these non-free results are
 available upon action."

 Only slightly different, but I think it avoids a bit of potential
 bikeshedding and is easier to read.
