This is already in fedora since few months already.

Also you can note this is supported by the RPM Fusion community, based
on your work:
http://rpmfusion.org/Howto/nVidia_Optimus

BTW, I've haven't received any answear back about modsetting conflicts
with nvidia.
I think modesetting should disable any accel (glamor,exa) as soon a
the nvidia glx is loaded. And not to rely on any specific
configuration file about that (that will need to be enaled/disabled
back and forth if the driver switch is implemented between
FOSS/proprietary driver).

Thx
