This does not answer the question about how you get GNOME on a brand new
machine, my feeling from GUADEC was that some people wanted to address such
a need. You are not going to achieve that with a qcow2 image.
I read what you pasted as 'we have no clear idea about exactly what we are
going to ship in the future'.

*You* are suggesting breaking the ID scheme by reusing an existing scheme
for something totally different. Let's do the right thing at the libosinfo
level while GNOME move forward with the GNOME OS plan.
Are there drawbacks with using the scheme I suggested?
(http://gnome.org/ostree/$version and http://gnome.org/live/$version)
