This is really what we would like to achieve - not to have 
Rawhide to break stuff but to work on next releases (and even
not only on the next releases but upstreams etc., where you need
latest bits).

One of the ideas is to have merge windows for Rawhide, doing as much
changes as possible in side repositories (coprs?)/branches and
merge in a specific time, with the acceptance test as proposed
in this revamp. That's the question on our infrastructure, how 
it would be possible (from dist-git, autoqa, build infra)....
