No. Upgrades from Fedora 20 will be non-Productized. In practice, this
means they will get fedora-release-standard (instead of
fedora-release-workstation, etc.) and they will end up with the
'standard' version of any config package that varies between Products
(currently, this is only firewalld).

Users that want their system to *become* Workstation will want to run
'yum swap fedora-release-standard fedora-release-workstation' and then
'yum install @^fedora-workstation-environment'
