Well, Seth has spoken on the topic and it seems that people have actually found uses for this behavior. I'll update the manpage to refer to the fact that the clean operations only operate on enabled repositories, end of story, ok? Before this thread gets any more ridiculous than it already is...
How about we just say that all yum operations will only act on enabled repositories? Just so there is no doubt that disabled repos are not acted on.
How 'bout adding a config option to yum.conf? Default setting for the "cleanall" option could be "enabled-only", users could switch that to "nuke-everything", or something along those lines. Seems like a reasonable compromise that gives both sides of the fence what they want, no?
