I think this is a great idea.  I opened a new ticket[0] to try and get
this done fairly soon.  I'm in the process of revamping bodhi's database

We could, although getting comments from the average user regarding test
updates may be useful, or even provide a simple form that allows people to
easily file bugs against that component.
