it's really annoying for anyone using the hostname anywhere else (mainly
due to the expected size).
ÂIs there nowhere else that we could store a "hostsummary" instead of
hostname?

I believe anaconda is Ok, But many users complain about it, I honestly can't understand why.

What I can undersand and even say is that anaconda needs a little "more polished" experience.
I mean, in the "look part" Fedora needs a re-birthday, we use same graphics combination in anaconda,
the same Gnome theme, the same themes to pick for (gtk) and mostly the same that when Fedora started.
I believe we need to polish that look part, as far as I understand an O.S. Needs to be newer in each
new version not only in features, but also in look. If we can give that to users, discussions like these ones
will be present in a fewer number.
