Hello,
I filed another change proposal, which is related to the original one:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/OptimizeSquashFSOnDVDByRemovingEXT4FilesystemImageLayer
The new proposal does not change compression parameters of the SquashFS
image on DVD.

Hello Zbyszek,
You haven't really answered the "why" part: why is it so important to
save 50MB? And why is the effect on QA less important?
From my perspective, the storage on the installation medium should
be efficiently used. Even though the optimization is just 50MiB, it
is an optimization.
And this optimization is transparent in terms of content.
And why is the effect on QA less important?
The QA team is only one group of users. We should rather orient at
end users, and the way those users install Fedora.
Sorry, but that argument is not convincing. *Everything* we do has to
strike a balance. Making testing harder or slower also has an impact
on *users* — the stuff that they get will be less well tested.
