I think, the bsys should raise up a list of deps that might need a
rebuild; A webpage with checkboxes and a go button. :-) Eventuall a
Two things I see with this:
1) I can rebuild any package without a maintainer's permission; That's
going to be a problem in some cases.
2) We'd have to make 110% sure that a script that rebuilds the SRPMs and
bumps the release correctly; often there are some packages that have
problems with auto-bumped release. This could be solved through more
stringent packaging guidelines.

notification to the maintainer if build fails, and/or a bug#,
whatever.
But if you want autorebuilds in such a way, the system needs to know how
to increase the release number and add a cl entry to the spec; Needs cvs
commit rights and so on... Maybe nothing anyone wants to be automated...
However, I'm not goin' to code this :-P
