Please tell us how you would do so.  Assume the usual case, that the
package is in a remote yum repo.

Remember that we have no announcement mechanism for Extras packages,
so we have no way to communicate possible incompatible updates to
users.  Obviously the idea is to not introduce any incompatible
changes within a single Fedora release, but eventually it's going to
happen and surely a sentence in the %changelog can do nothing but
help.
