So here's the question:

will someone often be doing:
yum-config-manager --add-repo=fp:spot/chromium

or will they more likely do:
yum-config-manager --add-repo=<paste-url-to-repofile-from-web-browser>

b/c it sure feels like the latter is more common.

Out of convenience, the former will be more common.
