A little of both.  The current software poses hurdles, and it's lack of
ideas to work around those hurdles without making significant change to
the software in question.

The best idea we've come up with yet is to have bodhi /not/ untag a
build from dist-f??-updates-testing when it moves to stable, and instead
have the mash process that composes dist-f?? do the untagging, or use
something outside of either of those to periodically check packages in
dist-f14-updates-testing and dist-f14 and clean things out of
dist-f14-updates-testing that are on the public repo.
