Actually, it is still possible. Here's how it'd work:
- TU changes package name from foo to bar.
- This automatically triggers an out-of-date notification (and an
explanation comment) for all packages that depend on foo.
- Everyone updates their packages to reflect the changes.
Now all votes, comments and even notification lists are preserved without
doing a single database query. I really don't think it gets more KISS than
that.
I beg to differ. The way it is right now is way more KISS.
So far, my favorite suggestion is either 1) creating a way to transfer
votes and comments or 2) keeping everything as it is.
