You wouldn't believe how often and how hard it is to convince the sysadmins and geeks that not all Fedora users are sysadmins and geeks. Your feedback is needed :)

This bugzilla is the correct way to start nagging them:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=868421

After we resolve this one, we will probably discover other issues lurking (systemd), but the initial bug is in dracut, I believe.
