The login screen is fine, if it just comes up on your laptop display you can still login, however the active desktop session is a different story. You are enabling something that is known broken and removes features from users. Desktop rotation doesn't work for starters. This is a pretty basic feature that I know lots of people use. You've just enabled a regression by default for all of these people. This isn't what rawhide is for. If someone reports the regression in a bug will you revert this feature. Maybe trialing GNOME on wayland as the default is premature but removing the option on login to use GNOME on X is definitely. As such I respectfully ask you put that option back in rawhide. If you still disagree, I'll probably have to spend time I could spend working on stuff, taking this through some Fedora process I haven't had to deal with.
