Here are so many problems, technical, policy, resources, (others?). That
said, feedback in the form "How many users uses/installs my package"
would IMHO be a great input for any packager. It would be the difference
between dropping the package in a black hole vs getting a message back
from the community.

Lets face it: I envy those who can measure the usage from a download
counter or so. Can we have something similar?

no - you have no clue which mirror was used without explicit tracking in YUM/DNF and given the noise about the recent Firefox changes you won't even consider seriously tracking inside the distribution

additionally downloads are meaningless - many setups with more than one machine have their local mirrors and a download can be 1, 10 or 50 installed instances
