Yes, that rocks. Actually that would be quite a bit more 
functionality than I need right now. I could get by with 
just the score and exclude attributes.

Why not? 

[repo1] 
name=foo
score=20

[repo2]
name=bar
score=30
exclude=foobar

Both repo1 and repo2 have package foobar. repo2 has priority but
excludes it so it should come from repo1, right? 

Are you looking for something like:

[repo1]
name=foo
score=20
exclusiverepositoryfor=foobar

but with a prettier attribute name?
