Can FESCo or the FPC perhaps come up with an official policy on retired
packages which have been published before for multiple releases of the
dist, but which are not obsoleted in any new package?

E.g. python-libtorrent as requested for removal here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/RepoRequests

A possible solution is a mandatory entry in the release notes, in a
section that explains how to remove orphans/leaf-packages manually.
