It's notable, in part because it isn't the same as a Fedora package. Klik packages are user runnable files that is fairly distribution independant, which makes it very easy to get to the software without a) building and installing it yourself, or b) waiting for your distro to package it for your system. Thus for new stuff coming out, klik packages represent a nice, quick and easy way to try new software.

Except Klik packages are built out of Debian packages. So while you might not have to wait for *your* distribution to package it, you could also just be running Debian.
