Okay, I think I've got it!

"yum list extras" will list all RPMs install that aren't in any
repositories.  Since I'm only using the base x86-64 repositories (Fedora
Core, Extras and Livna.ORG), here is what ix86 packages I have installed
outside of those (although I have possibly _uninstalled_ some x86_64
packages too):  

Fedora Core:  
  aalib.i386                 1.4.0-0.rc5.3          installed
  firefox.i386               1.0.6-1.1.fc3          installed
  lirc.i386                  0.7.1-1                installed
  mozplugger.i386            1.6.2-1                installed
  xmms.i386                  1:1.2.10-9             installed
  xmms-mp3.i386              1.2.10-0.lvn.3.3       installed
  xmms-flac.i386             1.1.0-7                installed

Livna.ORG:  
  faad2.i386                 2.0-0.lvn.3.3          installed
  lame.i386                  3.96.1-0.lvn.1.3       installed
  lame-devel.i386            3.96.1-0.lvn.1.3       installed
  libdvdcss.i386             1.2.8-0.lvn.5.3        installed
  libdvdcss-devel.i386       1.2.8-0.lvn.5.3        installed
  libdvdnav.i386             0.1.10-0.lvn.1.3       installed
  libdvdnav-devel.i386       0.1.10-0.lvn.1.3       installed
  libdvdplay.i386            1.0.1-0.lvn.3.3        installed
  libdvdplay-devel.i386      1.0.1-0.lvn.3.3        installed
  libdvdread.i386            0.9.4-0.lvn.1.3        installed
  libdvdread-devel.i386      0.9.4-0.lvn.1.3        installed
  libmad.i386                0.15.1-0.lvn.1.b.3     installed
  mplayer.i386               1.0-0.lvn.0.18.pre6a.3 installed
  xmms-mp3.i386              1.2.10-0.lvn.3.3       installed
  xvidcore.i386              1.0.3-0.lvn.1.3        installed
  xvidcore-devel.i386        1.0.3-0.lvn.1.3        installed

3rd Party:  
  AdobeReader_enu.i386       7.0.0-1                installed
  flash-plugin.i386          7.0.25-1               installed
  jre.i586                   1.5.0_02-fcs           installed

With those RPMs installed _outside_ the normal x86-64 Fedora Core,
Extras and Livna.ORG repositories, I get all the browsing goodies --
from audio/video playback right in Firefox, to Flash, Java and PDFs.

P.S.  For indemification (licensing) issues at a company, I would _not_
install lame-*, libdvdplay-* or xmms-mp3.
