The CentOS Project is pleased to announce the immediate availability of CentOS 7 for x86_64, including images for docker, and various cloud providers. There are many fundamental changes in this release, compared to previous releases of CentOS. Notably the inclusion of systemd, Gnome3, and a default filesystem of XFS. For more information about what makes CentOS 7 stand out, please see our release notes.
CentOS 6 can be upgraded to 7, but that functionality is still being tested.

Except, software is available during install. Just make sure to create a /boot partition - Anaconda will automatically confine it to the boot device so booting works.
Except, if you go into the sources section of the install, it lets you add some.
Not exactly sure what you mean by that, but I'll take your word for it.
Okay. Maybe not individual packages, but plenty of sub groups are available. For example, the Virtualization Host group has add-ons for:
Network File System clients
Remote Management for Linux
Virtualization Platform
Compatibility Libraries
Development Tools
Smart Card Support
Except, it totally is in the list.
