Just a FYI for anybody starting to play with this:

This can't be done with current yum plugin infrastructure - plugins in 
pre/postresolve slots can't affect the result code yum itself sees from 
the depsolve stage, meaning even if you fix the transaction set from 
postresolve yum will still stop with broken deps errors. So, it's possible 
to write a proof-of-concept plugin for this but it wont be able to do 
anything without some changes to yum itself.
