It is called smoketesting and I think it fulfills the objective of avoiding broken updates pretty well, thanks. Note that we are talking about Fedora here, not RHEL. If you are not satisfied with the current level of testing, you are welcomed to do something about it.

Again, this is Fedora we are talking about, not RHEL. If you (the QA community) decide on some new policy that most maintainers disagree with, they will just ignore it and there is _absolutely nothing_ you can do to enforce it. Period.
