I'm not sure this is a good idea. Also, queries and figuring out dependencies still requires having RHEL/CentOS repositories, which this package would not provide.
That is a known limitation, but I wouldn't say this makes it "not a good idea". Would you mind telling why so consider it bad? I like the repos packaged, so I don't have to explain to others how to get them. This way, it's a magnitude easier. It solves a problem I have.
Some time ago, I wrote rpmdistro-repoquery wrapper around dnf repoquery[1] for doing stuff like this. That might help for you too. [1]:https://pagure.io/rpmdistro-repoquery
I've actually seen this (when mentioned couple week ago somewhere on a mailing list) and while powerful, it was a bit more complicated for me to use. For my own problems, having the epel repos is what I need. rpmdistro-repoquery wrapper can optionally use the packaged repos as well if desired (but doesn't have to).
