If they are wanting to use it at install time or on first boot, they can use tools like spacewalk or puppet, chef. Some do want to use at install time. Others just want a torrent client, or additional codecs, or a sip client and all they need is along "yum install twinkle". They have never heard of chef / puppet / PXE and they could not care less. For THOSE people a yum install epel-release && yum install $WHATEVER is what they are looking for > IMO a distribution shouldn't be in the business of coddling lazy or unknowledgeable users. That's not a reason to spook them away though.
