[Yum-devel] aliases yum plugin, consider for yumutils

 And now for something a bit more fun, yum aliases. This does what you'd
expect, it allows you to type: "yum lsuT" to get: 

yum list updates --enablerepo=updates-testing

...which I do often enough I want to save my fingers :).

 I've attached both the .py file and the .conf file. Is this useful
enough to go in yum-utils?
