Why, what is there to loose? I agree with you on major upgrades of

for example, will not hurt existing users in anyway, even if they do a
daily yum update it will change nothing for them, except an ever so
slightly larger metadata download.
It encourages people to move to new releases to get new stuff. And of course
skilled users who want the package on an older release can always rebuild
it.
