user to explicitly enable the source repos, yumdownloader will do that
automatically, yes?

It used to be the case that you had to specify the repos explicitly but yumdownloader got smarter and you don't have to do that anymore.  It appears that this change was not clearly documented in the man page however.  So in addition to updating the wiki page, I would *also* file a bug report against yum-utils to update the man page as well but keep in mind,  dnf is merging the functionality of yumdownloader directly into dnf (which in turn might become the new yum in a couple of releases).  So it might be helpful to check and file a bug report against dnf as well
