The artwork for the most part is going to be the same if we use
generic-logos. Rest of the packages from Fedora are not modified and
will work exactly the same. You only would have to deal with bugs from
RPMFusion specific packages which you would have to do anyway.

Yes, it does and it is getting adopted by others like Opensuse,
Mandriva, Ubuntu etc. If you have a actual problem, file a bug report.

Not everybody has network access and spare systems. The audience for
live cd's are entirely different from the end users who have the
knowledge, inclination and infrastructure to setup pxeboot servers.
