For such thing, we can do a lot of things. But urpmi will still continue to work with local medium (while no network access are performed). I can add another support with perl module, but this is not mandatory for instance (other things to do). François.

What is level here ? we should take care according to version available, or we add a version information if necessary (virtual version so) but this is not needed currently. François.

It is an option to give a property/file required/package/provide to search package to install from this text. For example, urpmi -p KOI-8.so will try to update glibc (look at urpmq -p KOI-8.so also) as glibc provide KOI-8.so I will try to update this part of the documentation, is it online help and/or man pages which are not very clear ? François.
