The current behaviour would be obtained by setting it to 1, and setting it to 2 would already be a positive change as it would allow downgrading a package if the update went wrong.

I don't think that is really what you want either. The idea is to keep recently obsoleted updates around, not 2 or 3 versions of everything.

The change has some other benefits. Reverting bad updates in rawhide would be easier. You can use yum downgrade instead of having to going look at koji and download builds. Dealing with packages dropping out of repos when moving between test and updates. The latter issue is especially bad with branched during freezes.
