You may possibly work around this problem by keeping old builds for some time and adding a way to temporary override timeline at the repo metadata level (not at the package level). I suspect this could work at a small scale, but would wreak havoc in dep resolution if used more than a couple of days on packages with deep descendant trees. Even with --skip-broken yum is not able to resolve all conflicts in koji repos now, without adding such possibilities to the mix. And that is assuming all the administrative details (who sets the overrides, when, with what tools, how to deal with conflicting requests) could be worked out sanely. While seductive the idea seems about as safe as attempting to reverse direction on a highway. The more traffic (repo churn) there is the less likely you'll end up in one piece.
