Opt-in:
su - (or sudo -i)
dnf copr enable myapp-beta
dnf distro-sync

Opt back out and roll back:
su - (or sudo -i)
dnf copr disable myapp-beta
dnf distro-sync

Where's the problem? This is also trivial to offer in a UI.

And the (unrelated) online update issue is really a non-issue in practice, 
as I explained in my reply to Debarshi Ray.
