I am not part of the decision-making chain for this (personally, I would
have swung bigger!) but I respect the people who are, and as I understand
it, the intention is to demonstrate success in those constrained use-cases
and grow carefully from there (that's what Scott says in that bug, and I'm
sure he's not making it up).

I think probably these "simple outside-the-baliwick"
cases are good to send to the centos-questions at redhat.com address, or to bug
Scott about specifically with more details of the use case. That bug has "it
may be useful for some users" but if you can expand that with several user
stories it might be more compelling.
