I think it is much better to hookup preupgrade with PackageKit so you

the problem of people sticking to old unmaintained releases in a much
nicer way.
Funny you say that, we added functionality to do this about 2 days ago.
The daemon parts are in place, we just have to write the yum code (copy
out of preupgrade) and then launch preupgrade when we show the user some
new UI.
Yes, I filed a RFE against packagekit and posted to the packagekit
development list about this since a number of distributions are
developing preupgrade like solutions and a common framework was needed.
Thanks for doing this.
