Feasible? Yes. I use one (a Pioneer). If you know what sort you'll be getting, check the compatibility list, but chances are pretty good that it will work.
I don't use k3b, but their website says it handles DVDs, and I'm inclined to believe it

Iso are no problem burned an iso dvd of FC3. What is nicer is a drive that is DVD-+R/RW/RAM.
