So sure, we could use something but it doesn't have to start out as some
complex fully automatic system.  (Would be nice, but...)

Can we agree that we'd be at least half of the way there if we just had
a well defined way to:

* Know what package depend on the one you're updating

* Easily bump and chain-build all of that in a side tag

Surely there's a reopquery or fedrq command line that will find at least
most of what needs to be rebuilt.  It doesn't have to be absolutely
perfect but it can't be that hard to get close.  I know there's a
distinction between build and runtime dependencies and rich/conditional
dependencies complicate things a bit, but those much smarter than I am
must have already figured out how to get something that's at least
somewhat useful.

Once you have the package list, maybe it needs some kind of sorting
before you can just bump and chain-build things, but I think in many
cases it doesn't.  So, yes, a 100% tool would be really hard but the 80%
tool really shouldn't be that bad, and almost any tool would really help
people out.
