I've been working on the reinstalls myself. I added 3 lines to install()
and to the TransactionMember checks and it lets me add them to the
transaction properly, however, rpm throws a fit unless you tell it
you're doing a re-install transaction.

So we want to keep this working :). My goal is allow reinstalls through
either a plugin with a 'reinstall' command, through a reinstall config
option or just using the shell.
