Something along those lines was proposed before, because it significantly eases mock maintenance during the branching period. E.g. now, at the time of F34 branching we already have released mock-core-configs (check updates-testing) with new F35 configuration and everything should be working. Sure, temporarily, the fedora-34-x86_64 chroot builds against 34 repos (still equivalent to rawhide), fedora-35-x86_64 config is symlink to rawhide, and builds against rawhide (still f34). So the only thing users will observe that 'fedora-rawhide-*' and 'fedora-35-*' are temporarily producing RPMs with fc34 %dist tag and this will automatically change once the mirrors are updated. It works now because the gpg keys have been generated a bit in advance for a few last fedora releases (in copr team we try to notify administrators to do that), but having it 6 months in advance will be better (less rush). I think we should dump this to the branching policy/howto documents so we don't have to manually track that. Finally, if we could document there that updated distribution-gpg-keys and mock-core-configs packages should be released, it would be an awesome help ...
