I think folks here on the list understand that each update needs to be
vetted. Once it has been vetted and we know it can go to rawhide + other
releases, it's nice to be able to do it quickly and move on to other
packages. So shortcuts + automation is always welcome in cases where we
know it's doing the right thing.
