Nope, completely not, we do this most release cycles and not just
gnome... it also doesn't affect any of the artifacts that don't ship
gnome compents.

Having been involved in this process for so long I'm kind of surprised
the biggest deal of all of this is that this is a "big deal"... the
fact is post beta we open up the flood gates again so this is going to
be there so IMO I'd sooner it now where we can get people that do a
"quick fly by beta live CD boot" before they upgrade and catch the
issues now than at GA :)
