No I've never thought of that. Sounds interesting to do! But, I'm 
thinking, I'd have a little nightmare keeping track of which packages to 
exclude when updating with dag. Or is there a way to create a whitelist 
instead of an exclude list? Something to test once dag.wieers.com comes 
up again.

Thanks for the info!
