One point though - if we were to do :

dvd#1.iso dvd#2.iso ( which contains things otherwise not installable via the installer )

and a distro-everything.iso ( at about 7GB, for people who want to host it on USB keys and nfs mounts etc ),

then is there any point in the dvd#2 ? if people cant use it install time ?

You're right. If there's going to be an everything.iso, there is little point in having a DVD#2. Those who want to make a full install can do so from DVD1 alone. Those who need to transfer all the rpms in one convenient verifiable package can use the everything.iso, to be used with a dual-layer DVD or USB memory stick, or loop mounted somewhere.
