Where is the new package submission that wants to use the same
specfile for F8/F9 and devel? Not possible anymore? That's the
catch. As said, your proposal is just a disguised way back to not
using disttags at all. Why bother having a ".1" then at all?

I'm not talking disttags, but minor fixes in the buildid as in
<releasetag>=<buildid><disttag> choosing a disttag that start with
letters was designed that way see the discussion during FC1.
E.g. now
kernel-1.2.3-4.EL5, small fix or simple rebuild (like your EPEL rebuild)
=> kernel-1.2.3-4.0.1.EL5
in your model
kernel-1.2.3-4.1, => kernel-1.2.3-4.0.1.1 => broken upgrade paths.
