Yeah, back when I worked on Bodhi this bothered me sometimes, but I
also had the thought that if I changed it to work the other way that
that would also cause some consternation ("why can't I create another
update, the other one is accepted for stabilization already!"). See,
Bodhi has it's own too fast, too slow problem ☺

I'm not really sure which way would be better, but I think I lean
towards thinking that maybe Bodhi really should wait until updates are
all the way stable before accepting new updates for the same packages.

I also think it'd be better UX wise if Bodhi prompted users before
obsoleting, because I could see it being frustrating if you obsoleted
an update that was about to go stable because you thought you could
submit a new one. A simple "are you sure you want to obsolete FEDORA-
2019-xyz?" would do it.
