I'm in the habit of queuing for N and N-1 in a single bodhi request. Is
this addressed by any of our existing or proposed update policies?
It seems to cast doubt on the value of karma -- just because something
gets lots of positive karma on N doesn't mean that N-1 is ok. Then
again, the same concern is present in any grouped update if the voters
haven't tried *all* of the packages mentioned.

Even if you put an update for N and N-1 in the same form, once you
submit the request it splits it into two requests, one per Fedora
release. This means you'd have one set of karma per Fedora release.
