Are there any definite plans on actually using nouveau and/or radeon?
I know they get shipped and we can use them but will the standards stick to nv 
/ radeonhd?

What's the current state on radeonhd anyways? There is traffic on the 
mailinglist but radeon looks just moving much more quickly these days, even 
though I can't judge on actual quality.
But forcing people to use one over the other will always lead to missing 
features, in this case that opensuse won't have kms on every graphics card out 
of the box, while afaik most distributions use radeon (XOrg default)
