Maybe like it is in mplayer: a config-file there you can put in your default 
options ?

To come to my favorites in this discussion:

- rsync for updates
- if a download was aborted use the part that is allready there and download 
the rest then
- if a server is to slow / not reachable, take the next

- ability to configure a path there packages go to if --noclean
- urpmi.importmedia (mirror content to hd, build hdlist, add media)

Don't know if it is meant by p2p magic-hdlist : a "click on a link to add 
media"/ urpmi://...hdlist.cz would maybe be fine too (Easy Urpmi thought one 
step further)

One other idea is nothing that can do urpmi: meta-packages for special 
purposes (like the groups during installation)
