The suggestion was to propose this as a feature for F19. I think there's
some additional basic functionality we really need in place before that
would be ready.

Well, we've got: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/PackagePresets and
it seems like we could probably come up with a preset selection for
non-desktop system use. I'd say "server-presets", except it goes beyond
server, of course. But yeah, we'd need to make that easy -- a list of "now
you get to jump through these hoops because we've made things better!" won't
make anyone happy with us.

Additionally, it _would_ be cool for log monitoring and analysis tools to
gain journald support, so that users of those tools can take advantage of
all the features Lennart lists. If we could have some of those in place
along with the proposed feature, that would be a win.
