The ability to have multiple different builds of the same software which
users can choose between, sounds alot like the use case for modularity.
Abusing Epoch to try to address this kind of situation feels like a pretty
undesirable approach, as this problem with suddenly clashing Epochs will
illustrate.

If ceph in Fedora were a module, is it possible for Ceph upstream to
provide an alternate module stream of ceph too ?  If so, then users
could use the normal modules features in DNF for deciding  which stream
to have active on their systems.
