I have the same concerns about this that I do for the patch you
proposed for Fedora rawhide. Namely that OS in libosinfo have
some implied long term stability, but these are by definition
moving targets. 

I understand your desire to include them though.

Perhaps we should address this by adding a tag to the XML element
indicating whether an OS is a formal release, or a snapshot ? That
way apps can at least distinguish the two if they have a need to
so, and we can declare that any OS database entry marked as a
"snapshot" is liable to change arbitrarily over time.
