Well, allowed maybe, but it IMHO does not make to much sense for the
same reasons (you won't see them in nightly yum updates, front ends like
pirut won't show them and you often won't even see them in plain yum as
they often scroll away quite soon due to the output from installing
other packages, ...), so you should not rely on them.
