I think this would be difficult...

Yeah, that might be nice. In fact if it's a library so change it would
easy because there would be broken deps.

I think these cases are rare and also that maintainers should
communicate, so they should be detected.

Notifications of builds and/or commits should definitely tell a
maintainer that two people are rebuilding things in two side tags.

Perhaps when creating a side tag we could display the existing ones so
you know if what you are trying to do might overlap with an existing
one? For that we might need a short description of the side tag...

f29-kevin-xfce "Side tag to build the Xfce stack"
or
f29-exampleuser-boost "Side tag to rebuild against new boost x.y.z"
