Most of the complaints are directed at the new installer which was rushed
through and isn't entirely finished yet.

My theory is that the reason for this "rushing" is that since Fedora 18
servers as the base for RHEL 7 there was a strong interest in getting the
new installer in there so it receives some real-world testing in a release
before it pops up in RHEL later.
