Question 1: Does this still fall under the all or nothing prevention of
moving tags?  I don't know CVS well enough to know if there's a
fullblown hook that can be run to determine that "all tags prefixed with
koji-* are immutable".  If so, that is a way to achieve this and was
proposed by Jesse several months ago.

Actually... tagging an unsuccessful build is useful.  How else do you
take a look at what caused a particular build to fail?  I think having
multiple immutable tags for the same NVR would be preferable.
