Seth is the upstream yum maintainer.  You were essentially asking
upstream yum to change.  He has that authority.

The point would be tracking purposes.

By the way, you filed a bug in Fedora bugzilla asking for upstream to
make a plugin that Fedora doesn't even ship to be "hardcoded" into yum
itself.  That particular request would have been better filed with the
upstream yum developers.  And it would have been denied just as quickly.

Personally, I would have started by asking for the Fedora yum package to
include the plugin and have it disabled by default.  To me, that is much
more reasonable.
