Bodhi policy for pushing updates to stable

Hi all.

When upgrading F20 to F21 using FedUp, some users had a problem
with some packages not being upgraded (e.g. [1]). The problem was
caused by broken update path F20 -> F21.

For example in wget's case I pushed updates for the same NVR in F20
and F21 with auto-karma. However the wget update for F20 got the
stable karma and was pushed to stable before the update for F21.

I think bodhi should enforce the update path is not broken and
hold the update for F20 until the update for F21 is in stable.
I know I can do it manually and disable auto-karma and push updates
to stable as they should be. However I think such task should be
automated.

Would it be possible to enforce such a thing for updates in bodhi?
