I think it's a great idea to not block media composes for preupgrade
issues. However, it is still a supported upgrade method and needs
Beta testing. I would definitely not move preupgrade to only blocking
final release; why else are we doing Beta releases if not to get testing?

What I would do is treat preupgrade bugs at Go/No-Go meetings as release
blockers, but at the same time not require install media respin for
preupgrade fixes. This should allow more flexibility and faster turnover
for validation. As long as there is a process to accept Anaconda builds
to stable during the freeze without doing composes, I believe this
should work.
