What if Fedora Core development was divided in two divisions, the GNOME division and the KDE division, the releases will be available to be GNOME-only or KDE-only releases on seperate iso's, the GNOME ISO will specializes only on GNOME softwares and applications. There will be a micro-managed bug fixing for GNOME-only related softwares, the effort will be concentrating on much more focused approach than the traditional (hybrid ISO's), same to the KDE ISO, wherein include a KDE-only related (or specialized) softwares and applications.
Which version contains Xfce (which I run)?
You are also not considering that there are folks, myself included, who run a mix of apps, both gtk and qt (like k3b) in our current environments.
I think that you are taking too much of a black and white perspective here. There is already a lot of divisiveness over these issues and I don't think that this would help. There are already maintainers focused on specific components, which roll up into the full FC releases and I think that this approach serves the community well.
My 2 cents.
