No interest due to several reasons, at least:

Hrm, I hadn't thought about multipackage updates, but single package
updates can just be referenced by srpm n-v-r, eg:
$ bodhi -k +1 --comment "Installed and X still works"
xorg-x11-server-1.7.99.901-5.20100215.fc13
* Negative karma on updates, which are marked stable already, is useless.
True, I'm mostly concerned about things in testing, and double concerned
about things in 13-testing.
* Only the bodhi update submitter is notified about comments, afaik.
That is less useful than mailing to the package-owner@... alias.
In one aspect yes it is less useful. In another aspect it is very
useful, as we are using karma on critical packages as a barrier to entry
into stable. Automatically adding negative karma due to broken deps
helps prevent such breakage from hitting the branched 13 repo.
If there is no interest, that's fine, I can try to work something up
myself, maybe even a script to take your email and do something with it.
Thanks again for providing this information!
