Yeah, this idea of having to install GNOME first to be able to install the
desktop you actually want is totally wacky, and if that is really what we
recommend to our users, they will run to other distributions (that actually
support the desktop environment they care about with a dedicated installable
live image) in droves. Really, almost all users are NOT going to put up with
this. You need to be really determined to want to run Fedora to jump through
such ridiculous hoops, most people will just look elsewhere.
And this is really true independently of the desktop environment we are
talking about (except maybe things such as WM-only setups whose users are
used to tweaking things by hand anyway).
