So we don't trust Fedora contributors anymore? Will we now replace every "use your best judgment" clause in guidelines by "Ask FPC for approval"? And TBH, I can't see somebody would use Supplements in Fedora, since I, as a maintainer of some "popular engine", will probably want to have Require or Recommends on such important plugin and I'll be probably one of the first people who would notice such breakage. Really, we should not write arbitrary guidelines without real life examples and moreover we should not prohibit things nobody would ever use anyway. The guidelines are complex enough already.
