A user is never exposed to the name for rawhide while interacting with the system at all. The only way someone knows to is if they have been told about it.. or they have gone into the .repo files and read the labels. I really dont see how this is different than a commented out section people will uncomment out things to enable them.. even fedorafaq used this approach before enablerepo was available as a switch. Its a very simple guideline... if you tell someone about rawhide... take the time to give them your personal understanding of what its suppose to be used for. Do not give them a chance to assume its tested update or just another 3rd party repo. Its simply about being responsible and making sure you do your boy scout best to inform people. For people who find the label for rawhide by looking at the .repo file... its probably a good idea to add a few sentences of text that try to give an brief explanation about what rawhide actually is. I'll file an RFE about that today. -jef
