Thx for that. Seems David Timms gave it a try as well. I merged the two 
variants, (hopefully) improved things and put them on the RPM Fusion 
front side (which is I modified in some other areas as well -- but there 
is still more work needed afaics..). Check out

And tell me if you like it.

Hmmm. I simply copied development over to F10 without generating the 
repoview data again. Will look into that.

Looks like it -- it doesn't do anything for empty repos.

For F8 and F9: no. For EL5: not sure yet.

Xavier was helpful here afaics (and he is the better one to talk to for 
things like that). Hope you two get it sorted out.
