So ... this sounds like firefox would be a good example of a package that would benefit from my proposal? - It's already almost a leaf package (only some other GUI apps - that could also drop i686 support without any consequences - depend on it). - We already do not publish or ship firefox.i686 RPMs - or RPMs for the 4 dependent applications, for that matter - to anybody, so building them is just a waste of time and maintainer resources.
