Note that we do actually have a bug number for this - 471232.

Thanks for fetching pykickstart first and following all my recent
stylistic changes (like the kwargs.get stuff)!

However, you don't want to add this option to FC3_Upgrade.  You'll want
to make a new F11_Upgrade object that inherits from FC3_Upgrade, then
modify the appropriate commandMap entry in handlers/control.py to
reference the F11_Upgrade object.  Then the F11_Upgrade class gets the
new option and the FC3_Upgrade class goes untouched.

Before you can do that, I will need to add support for F11 throughout,
which will only take a second.  I'll do that just as soon as I send this
mail.

Aside from that one comment, I'm happy with the name of the parameter
and how you've implemented it.  I'm sure a second run of the patch with
the new class will be fine.
