I merged a variation on this patch.

a couple of things about it:

1. you don't need to break out the items first - you can do it all in a
loop around it and it makes the code easier.

2. string.find(',') will always be something other than None or False.
It returns -1 if it can't find the item you're searching for. So if
foo.find(',') will always be true. We need "if foo.find(',') != -1"

3. you have to strip each object of preceeding and following spaces once
you split the input pattern. Otherwise a string like: --enablerepo="foo,
bar, baz" returns 3 items:

'foo'
' bar'
' baz'

otherwise the patch has been merged, thanks!
