I think it is clear that there are people interpreting the meaning of
'all' differently.
To some people, 'all' really means all. To other people, 'all' means a
selection of things they have set from a slightly more encompassing
'all'. I know that the devs don't want to add "useless" new features
to yum, but personally having a few extra options like this really
wouldn't go astray, and would be very useful in lots of cases:
yum clean enabled
yum clean disabled

By all means tell us to hide away these new features in yum-utils (if
anyone wants to code them), but I don't think the issue should just be
dismissed.
