well.. since yum isn't fedora specific... and packages aren't limited
to just the keys from red hat.... make sure you find a way to suggest
a course of action that makes sense for the general case.  Someone's
going to be mighty confused.. when they uses a repository like
www.cruftyrpms.net to get signed addon packages and yum prompts them
to import the Core keys... and they already have them imported.  How
does yum suggest importation of a key from an addon repo?
