I'm all for this change, "skip_if_unavailable=true" is a terrible default,
I have spent a fair amount of time this morning on some updates
testing [1] and since RPM Fusion repositories don't set this option it
lead to running dnf system-upgrade a dozen more times than I actually
needed.

But the main problem is that for this morning testing I also got a
couple dozen occurrences of "Failed to synchronize cache for repo" on
Fedora mirrors this time, and depending on where I am there are
several reasons for things to fail. I would really really love to see
this abandoned effort [2] resurrected because right now DNF is driving
me mad and it always does when I'm on a flaky network or seeing
dubious IPv6 support.

Also please note that fedora-cisco-openh264.repo ships with
"skip_if_unavailable=true".
