So this would help with image build tools like kiwi that do the installroot
preparation on the host filesystem before wrapping the final tree in an image
artifact (disk, ISO, tarball, etc.). And of course it helps with standard
Fedora and openSUSE installs too, so it would be a significant improvement for
us.
I'd love to see this... But...

Does this mean we would have to have uncompressed packages in the repository?
It would be pretty painful to lose zstd compression for Fedora packages.
