Not sure if my mind plays tricks with me, but I got the impression that I hear something like the above as a "shoot the discussion down" argument every few days right now... This is starting to annoy me, as statements like the above don't lead anywhere: Decisions have to be made; repeatably pointing out that it's hard to do them doesn't bring us a tiny bit further. So please:

Just let a group of interested people make a decision and realize it as a feature for F11! Then we hopefully can get rid of this topic (which seems to pop up every few weeks...).

The "Feature" exists. You get it by de-selecting every box in anaconda.

I unsure if I agree or not, but one things seems obvious to me: The current solution doesn't satisfy a lot of people (actually "it confuses people" might be the the better description). So if there are people that want to work out a better solution please let them just do that; if you think that clutters the UI then bring that point up; but just repeatably stating that it's hard to pick the "minimal package set" doesn't bring us any further.

A committee of interested people aren't going to magically make new UI
show up in anaconda, that has to be done through the anaconda upstream
and maintainers.

Sounds yet again like you want to shoot the discussion down, as you make it sound like getting things into anaconda is something totally impossible. But luckily Fedora and anaconda are open-source projects; Red Hat even opened RHL/started Fedora to give the community a chance to influence and improve things like that. So give them a chance to do that; yes, it's maybe won't be easy to realize with a clean UI, but I'm optimistic it's possible somehow.
