Ok. My plugin has to manually munge the .mirrorlist variable contents in
the init_hook plugin. I was just concerned that if this variable is
changed, I would have to change my plugin. (No, I hadnt looked at the
patch yet... also wanted to plug the idea of having a yumvars hook again
since I had not gotten a response on the proposal.)
