Joe, here's a part I hope you can help me understand better. Modularity
isn't an entirely new packaging technology. It's simply a layer on top of
RPM. Modules are made out of RPMs, and by design, their specfiles are
exactly the same as RPMs which happen to be grouped into modules.

I understand that it's nice to have exactly one workflow, but it doesn't
seem like it's actually all that much extra effort on top of what you
already have to do to maintain the module to make a non-modular build. Is
this something where triggering the non-modular builds in the same way you
build the module would make a difference?

Or is there something else that I'm not seeing?
