Is that method documented anywhere?

I wasn't expecting it to be under naming guidelines either.

Would referring to it from

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_update_HOWTO help?
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/UpdatingPackageHowTo should mention it. BTW, http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/UsingCvsFaq#How_do_I_make_changes_to_an_older_branch.3F mentions this trick, too.
