I'd support increasing the scope to cover more packages in this fashion. Being on critpath list is somewhat annoying because the bodhi update minimum times are twice as long. For many packages this is a not a problem, popular packages get enough karma within a day or two, but if we expanded the list a lot, it could prove annoying to those packagers. I think we could discuss lowering the minium update time if this turns out to be the case.
