Either on the PackageKit mailing list (probably best) or Fedora or
Freedesktop bugzilla.

Excellent. I don't think this feature would require much time at all.

Well, if it needs string additions or changes (which it probably will)
then it can't go into F10 as it's string-frozen. I'm sticking with the
GNOME release schedule for gnome-packagekit, and rawhide and F11 are now
shipping an unstable series, and so any addition would be very easy to
add. Hypothetically, if a perfect patch hit my Inbox tomorrow, it would
be in Fedora 11 on the second of May. If it took a month of coding then
it would be in f11-updates-testing on the first of June. I'm pretty
aggressive with release schedules.

No problem. Join the PackageKit mailing list. We're a friendly bunch of
people :-)
