If we're going to use the Atomic brand for it, please, please, please
keep as many things as similar as possible.
I don't think we can decouple the ostree image updates from the rpm-md repo updates;
doing so creates too many problems with package layering[1], and while a lot
of Atomic Host server use cases can avoid layering, I think it's a lot harder
to avoid for "pet" desktop machines that comprise a lot of the use case
that people mean when they say "I use Fedora".
(Of course for desktops the "computer lab" or "corporate standard laptop
build" use case
is probably more where one wants custom composes probably pre-configured;
that's a whole story starting with
https://github.com/projectatomic/rpm-ostree/pull/96#issuecomment-69592571
leading to
https://github.com/projectatomic/rpm-ostree/issues/442
and
https://github.com/projectatomic/rpm-ostree/pull/1039 etc.)
Anyways now that Bodhi has batches, I think it's really simplest to just match
that, and I saw some discussion to that effect on #atomic, so I think it's
being implemented.
