Interesting idea, but where does this go?  Unless you make the update actions
interactive during the install by the time you see this its too late.  And
I'm pretty sure we don't want to make the update processes interactive any
more than 'here is a list, click next to go'.

Actually I believe the protectbase plugin does exactly this.  All that
needs to be done is to enable this plugin by default and issue a
warning:

"The operation you're about to perform will replace a core package. This
could make it more difficult to maintain your system. If you're *sure*
you want to do this, issue the command yum remove yum-protectbase"
