OK, so there is no published officially sanctioned way to ask "is this repository under maintenance's control and cron jobs run in it?" or "give me the list of such repositories". Then I can see why you want to allow users to blindly run "unregister", with or without "--force". But doesn't it point at a more fundamental problem? Is there a reason why we want to hide the list of repositories (enlistments?) from the users?
