I get that having correct metadata is useful for a lot of programmatic
things (like maybe finally making https://pagure.io/releng/issue/5805 a
reality), but I agree about the results. Also, we shouldn't have this
dictated to us by the design of the compose tools. We should look at
what we want the user-facing results to be and work back from that.
