Well, the FPG's formulation isn't aiming at "testsuite execution speed", it is
aiming at packages whose testsuite's complexity would overly complicate
packaging a package. In other words it's meant to prevent case where sloppily
written crap-ware would not pass reviews, while packages with very evolved and
complex testsuites would not pass reviews.

That said,
* 20 mins of testsuite execution time is not extraordinary.

* Nothing prevents a packager to add --with/--without conditionals (with a
default to execise the testsuite) to an rpm-spec to speed up local
testbuilding.
