Why? For the same reason we have notifications.

OK, one example:

A user might install yum-cron to update the system. It could be nice to know about errors leading to yum not updating the system.

At the moment I get the following from my yum-cron (due to this yum is not updating):

/etc/cron.hourly/0yum-hourly.cron:

Traceback (most recent call last):
[ ... a lot of trace lines removed ...]
yum.Errors.NoMoreMirrorsRepoError: failure: repodata/repomd.xml from fedora-chromium-stable: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try. http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/spot/chromium-stable/fedora-20/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404 - Not Found

    Sorry. I do not follow you here. I am not sure what you mean.


The default workflow of the installer does not mandate creating a non
root user

Yes. And in my proposal, described earlier, that use case is taken care of (either everything will be as it has been for years, i.e. /etc/aliases is intact and the mail end up in mail to root, or you can chose to send it to a remote user)
