The cut images will always remain stagnant, the rpms not changing.  So
long as we allow updates to previous releases to be n-v-r higher than
the GA versions of the next release, we will always have a broken
upgrade path from N-1+updates to N.

Are you suggesting some distro release level super epoch?
