When we do branching we adjust koji targets and tags. My thought was to
do the adjustments, but disable some part of the workflow. Either
collect packages in the tag to be signed, or collect them in the tag to
be autosubmitted to gating by bodhi. Then, once a compose is done,
restart that process and process the backlog. If a package is needed for
a fix, it can manually be tagged in.

I think this should be completely up to releng. They should only land
things they need to get the compose working.

releng tracker... but users should not make exceptions normally, it
should only be things needed to make the compose work.

Yep. I agree...
