It is being proposed already for the next version of GNOME. So likely everyone will get it soon anyway. One of the key focuses in Fedora is to push everything we do upstream.

(Of course as a KDE user this means I'll have to add it to KDE 4 as well,
as an excuse to get into KDE development if nothing else ;} I doubt I can
