In this context, since we are still in freeze:
Can dnf distinguish between updates in testing and updates in testing submitted for

People might want to dist-upgrade to F37 now (I'm not critizing the release decision)
and want to get "the same updates as on F36". Ideally, no F36 package in stable
should be ahead of its F37 counterpart in stable, but due to the long freeze - or urgent
fixes - reality might be different.
It's fair enogh to say: If you want beta/RC I'll give you beta (with
updates-testing) ... and finally, if you turn off updates-testing at release time,
you'll end up with non-testing packages at some point in time after, of course.
No, there's no metadata for distinguishing that, since those queued
for stable are merely waiting for a compose run that allows them to go
through. Keep in mind, most updates in testing today will be queued
for stable in two weeks anyway.
