Well, in one sense it's entirely fedora specific (updates testing
repos, bohdi, and koji) and in other ways it's a problem all the
distros are facing, in that test updates get little to no coverage.

Anyway, by PackageKit we really mean kpackagekit and gnome-packagekit,
as the PackageKit bits are already usable, e.g.

* Enable this testing repo
* Get the updates from this repo
* Install them
* Wait a week
* Ask user for feedback, and point them at the bohdi page.
