I should have known it will be complicated, but let's try to categorize
the possible stuff:

- new packages => no conflicts with Fedora/RPM Fusion => 2 repos (stable
+ testing), stable enabled by default

- existing packages
        - experimental
                - examples: codeblocks
        - backports
                - examples:
        - forwardports (new stable versions from Fedora into EL)
                - examples: zabbix (no rebase 1.4->1.6 planned due DB
                changes etc, but some users would appreciate to have
                the 1.6)

                - one repo for each category, disabled by default, user
                must manually enable the repo and pick the package he
                want to install or update

        - special cases like kde-redhat - 2 repos (again stable +
                 testing) per case, stable enabled by default

Does this sound feasible?
