I'm definitely in favor of this. I still have dreams of having Fedora and
CentOS Stream branches sharing space in the repository, and having
everything explicity named with what branch it is rather than fighting over
who owns "main" would be nice.

As an alternate proposal, what is currently "master" could be moved to
"rawhide" and a _new_ "main" branch created explicity to hold just a readme
about that package's packaging details (like which branches are what
when there are module branches or other things, whether there are particular
things to be aware of that makes this package special, etc.). I'm not in
love with this as a git pattern, but it's A Thing People Do Sometimes and
maybe it's appropriate here.
