Hmm.. I'd love to see it as an option in Cobbler, too.  Let you select  
repos for installation (like the current wget)  vs repo lines in the  
kickstart.

This functionality could be used by cobbler to deal w/ repos,  
especially ones that aren't mirrored.  I haven't really thought about  
mirrored ones, but that would probably be helped, too.

Of course, a data store that is either network capable, separate from  
Spacewalk, or filesystem based for NFS would be great.  I can see this  
integrating into cobbler, and also into spacewalk.
