Yep. Seth, what do you think? The scripts and triggers amount to far
less data than the changelog information that's currently there... maybe
createrepo should add those to other.xml as well?

I don't have a list, but you can get an idea by looking at the repodata
files - everything in there can be (eventually) queried.
Some day I'd like to actually have "full" rpm --qf emulation for even
stuff like --qf "[* %{CHANGELOGTIME:day} %{CHANGELOGNAME}\n\n%

Yup, if I understood correctly your question it'll do what you want.
