And forget about it totally if you're using non-WBEL RPM's on your box...
I ran a custom built KDE + supporting libs and some driver RPM's and the 
config of that box got totally hosed during upgrade. So unless you bring 
the box back in a totally clean condition (use yum's 'list' option to find 
all the non-WBEL RPM's) you'll most likely run into issues.
