Jeff Johnson notes in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=502403#c1 
that PLD has a general mechanism for that as well already deployed.  The 
feature page does not mention whether existing solutions have been examined, 
and if they have, why one of them has not been adopted but instead a new one 
has been implemented.  I suggest adding such a section and examining at least 
PLD, SUSE and Mandriva.
