This is not something we want or can deliver in Fedora.

It's not like the UIs are radically changing. From one KDE release series to 
the next, they're vastly the same.

But those distros are really the only good option.

Using the previous stable Fedora is not a viable solution for these people. 
It only has 7 months of support as "previous stable". That means that to 
always be on "previous stable", you have to upgrade twice a year. There goes 
the "UI stability". So trying to target the previous stable release at those 
people is a losing proposition anyway. Those folks need something with a lot 
more than 7 months of support.
