Do we want to do that (here and everywhere)? Quoting from
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines

* If upstream uses <vendor_id>, leave it intact, otherwise use fedora as <vendor_id>. * It is important that vendor_id stay constant for the life of a package. This is mostly for the sake of menu-editing (which bases off of .desktop file/path names).

This is one danger of introducing artificial vendors. I'm working with Matthias Classen (fedora desktop, gtk fame) to draft new guidelines to discourage this practice.

In the meantime, for any particular Fedora release, it's still a good idea to make a best effort to keep the vendor constant. You can consider changing it for F-10+ if you like...
