I attempted a quick check:

    $ repoquery -q --repo=rawhide -l -a | tee >(

        grep -E '^/usr/bin/[^/]+$' | sort -u | xargs -n 1 basename > bin.txt

        ) | grep -E '^/usr/sbin/[^/]+$' | sort -u | xargs -n 1 basename > sbin.txt

    $ wc -l bin.txt sbin.txt

     31229 bin.txt
      2998 sbin.txt
     34227 total

    $ comm -1 -2 bin.txt sbin.txt

That should be a reasonably accurate list of the executables that need investigation, and for which the packages that provide them probably need some kind of modification.

I do not see as part of the plan a process to
go through all Fedora packages and identifying
binaries in /usr/bin that have the same name
as a binary in /usr/sbin (from the same, or
different packages) such that the packager
(or the multiple packages) will need to
coordinate the changes (perhaps by engaging
upstream).

I agree that there should be few, but
identifying impacts in advance provides
for a better decision process, and minimizes
the last minute work that packagers need
to do (they will have a longer warning and
preparation time).
