so I'm rethinking some - I think keeping the list options of the base
'yum' command to be simple ones - nothing really beyond what is
currently in yum, not by alot

then maybe having a yum-query command where all the crack can be
located.


the point being - if I'm a new user I'm going to want to do simple
things - and once my need for certain types of information grows enough
- then I can look for the more advanced querying tool.

I like that yum is easy for people to use - I'd like it to stay that
way.
