It's been suggested many times before, but no one has really stepped
forward to champion it. ;) 

There is an rpm version being worked on by an OpenSUSE person: 

http://gitorious.org/opensuse/popcorn

Something would need to be packaged, tested, etc. 

Then the problem becomes what data to store, how to store it. 
It's going to be a vast amount of data, and we would need some server
to store it, policies around when to drop entries, etc. 

Not that I think it's a bad idea, It just needs a group of determined
people to work on and make it happen. ;)
