For instance completely patching from RHEL 5.3 to RHEL 5.4. What I am wondering is other than what the actual ISO contains what is the meta-data that RHN uses to describe the update? Or does RHN not have the ability to pass along complete update description data to define that atom update action?

Maintenance releases are defined due to the ISO being released, which for RHN coincides with the fact that a huge amount of Errata is released that same day into said channels.
