It depends what you are building. If are building package foo with
soname bump and its dependencies, the if you build the foo by accident
into the official tag, then you are in troubles.

And for that dependencies, it depends. If you bum some dependency in the
middle of the chain, to be compatible with the new soname, but it
requires some other runtime dependencies, and you build it in the
official tag instread of the side tag, you are in trouble again.

The buildroot override can be sumbitted or expired. You can't do that in
Rawhide now. So there are two possibilities:

1) We automatically submit override, but it could be expired based on
testing.
2) If more packages are needed to build, the override can be submitted
manually.

It was just me dreaming :) I realize it is a lot of work so this would
be just NTH.
