Except you have to figure out what if your proposed updates need to be
multilib, and you can't just rely upon what was multilib before as it's
all dependency based and your new updates may change some of those
dependencies.  So you have to do a full compose with the new proposed
updates, make them multilib, and then depsolve.

You still have the problem of generating which of your newly proposed
updates need to be multilib, and that requires depsolving across the
entire set.
