So maintainers would not be allowed to remove epoch, but there would be
some script/automation, which would remove epoch on demand, once per
release, in all packages? Interesting idea.

Anyway, I still believe DNF could report when there is package 0:2.0,
while there is also 1:1.0, because this change, if accepted, is going to
redefine the meaning of epoch anyway. Epoch would basically become some
temporary override no matter what is the precise process.
