As I remember it, the major problem stems from the fact that rpm just
packages up the files and stuffs them in an archive when it creates
the rollback. Any scripting or specialness of the original rpm is
lost. This is getting a touch outside the area where I claim to know
what I'm talking about, so your best bet would be to ask someone
slightly more familiar with it here on the list, or one of the rpm
developers.
