Yeah, I'm with you.

I was actually hoping that Fedora might dump Helix as part of Core.  Is
there anything that Helix does that Totem can't?

The only thing I can think of is Helix seems to register itself for
protocols it can't handle (Real) and then offers up advertising for
RealPlayer when it fails to play the format.

Am I missing something, or could we move this to Extras.
