That would probably also help the fact, that (last i checked) ^C does 
switch mirrors, but it also prevents anything useful from happening at 
the end of the download process. I.e. yum -y update would download 
packages, ^C cause it to switch mirrors and keep downloading, but the 
expected update at the end of the download is skipped.
