My 2 cents... we should try and get bodhi (and the rest of the pipeline)
to work with these large updates if at all possible.
Having releng merge tags works of course, but as Adam pointed out, it
skips our CI and feedback testing area. Additionally, it's more work to
releng folks and more waiting around time for requesters.
We also have some KDE updates that were over 300 builds.
(like

)
I'm sure there have been others.
