Ack and good to know. In that case, yes, the metapackage is/would be
just an alternative way to specify a default stream for the given
Fedora release.

We could think of making the `nodejs` always a Provide in that case –
from my experience writing some tests, I would prefer to always have
the rpm name contain the version and not care of whether it is
currently the default or not.
I would still like to see the metapackage as a separate rpm, if only
to keep parity with RHEL (see my other answer).
