My current vision for this Copr was for it to have the latest greatest stable
(-ish) FreeIPA versino. I.e. as soon as we release 4.1, it would contain 4.1
and it's dependencies.

It makes sense, yes - especially if there would be an interest in this from our
users or your Docker use cases - given the maintenance burden. We can build
some semi-automatism around it though to make the maintenance easier, I myself
have some scripts ready to handle the builds.

centos-7-latest (with mkosek/freeipa copr)
centos-7-4-0 (with potential future mkosek/freeipa-4-0 copr)
centos-7-4-1 (with potential future mkosek/freeipa-4-1 copr)

Makes sense?
