I suspect it would be fairly heavily used. There are significant
benefits to having those:

* DeltaRPM would be considerably more useful
* "dnf history undo" would actually work

We could make it non-default and tell people that rollbacks require an
--enablerepo= option, though.

Having its own mirror module would also give mirrors the ability to
opt in, and I wouldn't be surprised if a good chunk of them do.
