Agreed, fully. But this is basically to version the GL, and that idea
was turned down when I approached the FPC with it [1]. My perspective at
that point was how to update fedora-review to match the changed GL, but
the solution was more or less the same.
It's a bit depressing to compare this very feature with Debian, which
has this Standards-Version thing in their "spec", basically a checkmark
for the last "GL" version the "spec" has been updated to.
Cheers!
