Not at all. Patchdays make perfect sense for planning
reboots/downtime/maintenance and that kind of thing.

Sure you can, Red Hat does it for updates in RHEL, and you just have
to define what the terms mean. 90% of the updates I'm looking at right
now for F18 are really not important at all. Spec file fixups, new
versions without bugfixes, updated artwork; that can all wait until a
certain point in the month.
