Snapshots: The ostree-based workstation some people are working on will provide this kind of functionality. We're also looking at providing development environments in containers, for better isolation of updates.
App Store: Can you elaborate? Something different from what we have in Software today?
* Security updates separate: yes, we separate updates into new package, enhancement, bugfix, and security. You can can configure dnf-automatic to install just security updates automatically. Opt-in rather than opt-out.
* Keeping the X you care about on the version you care about, and separating the dev stack from the OS. Yes, absolutely. We have Coprs as an equivalent to Ubuntu's PPAs, but I don't think that's very satisfying. We have a big initiative called Modularity which is aimed at delivering this for everything across the distro. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNLhcYEMgO0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNLhcYEMgO0 for a quick intro.
* Look nice: yes, we definitely try. Everyone has different ideas, though.
* Cisco: Doesn't this work? If it doesn't require something proprietary, I think it _should_. Point me to any open bugs if it doesn't. :)
* DNF: Officially does not stand for anything. "Dee en eff" is what I hear.
