partly yes. When 'update' finds 30-50 packages from multiple repositories - I
think it is good to know if it is just 1-2 packages that are not
signed - or more than that.

Currently when I encounter this - I just disable the gpgcheck flag (in
yum.conf)- and all the packages get installed without gpgcheck.

Wit the additional info - I might decide - this time will update the
gpgckecked packages (explicitly) - and ignore the others (provided it
works)

yum update pkg1 pkg2 .....
