I too quite severely dislike the notion of librpm users caring about the 
backend (name) explicitly. Ideally an API user would be handled -ENOTIMPL which 
they could then handle the best they see fit, but we don't have such interfaces 
at the moment and again would loathe to do new developments for a thing that's 
on its way out.

So maybe we'll just add an internal API for the purposes of identifying itself 
in --showrc, but leave it out of the public API. And just handle the 
dnf/librepo case in packaging instead, that much is easy to do.
