I saw your comment in #epel asking for feedback. I say go for it; as
you mentioned, most users will get this plugin through auto-update
anyway.

I think Wikipedia's "Be Bold" policy is a good one :) If you're
concerned about breaking something for people, you can always leave
the update in epel-testing for a period longer than the recommended
two weeks.
