The policy for this repo is:
https://access.redhat.com/site/support/policy/updates/extras/

I'd like to propose that we include this in EPEL7 at least as a repo
that we don't conflict with (ie, as packages are added there, they are
retired from epel). CentOS will be building these packages as part of
it's base collection I think.

+1.

Is there need for tooling to ensure this is the case, or can we reuse something that already exists?
