Ok, my own non-representative opinion there is :

1. yum operations should always target the primary arch when packages
are not already installed, and all installed arches otherwise

2. using globs for arches in the package list is silly - most of the
times if you target one or all arches it's the same rule for all the
packages. So the arch mode should not be specified in the package list
but via a specific yum flag ( --arch foo, --biarch, whatever)

3. control freaks which want a package-level arch granularity in the
orders they issue through yum can type full arches instead of globs.
This is not the general case and we should not optimize for it.
