I (and probably many others) have similar scripts. I'm wondering if we
should trow them together, put the best one into a package (¹) and ship
them in Fedora, so people don't have to reinvent the wheel over and over
again.
Everyone's welcome to suggest additions to rpmdevtools. But it would not hurt
to have another similar but less development oriented package of nifty
scripts around.
There's also

Oh, and qa-robot from ALT Linux has a bunch of useful looking things
(especially rpmsodiff) that I've meant to take a look at but haven't got
around to it yet, anyone interested? Some of them might require some
cleanup/changes to be generally applicable outside of ALT Linux.
