For normal packages, we just set up dnf-automatic to automatically apply

apply these, say on a daily basis, without us having to chase every
single firmware GUIDs?
It's available in the urgency field, no?
└─ThinkPad P50 System Update:

Summary: Lenovo ThinkPad P50 System Firmware

Ah, indeed, thanks! What seems missing is a CLI option to only install
updates matching the requested urgency field.
e.g. with DNF you have all these filters:
--bugfix Include bugfix relevant packages, in updates
--enhancement Include enhancement relevant packages, in updates
--newpackage Include newpackage relevant packages, in updates
--security Include security relevant packages, in updates
--advisory ADVISORY, --advisories ADVISORY
Include packages needed to fix the given
advisory, in
updates
--bz BUGZILLA, --bzs BUGZILLA
Include packages needed to fix the given BZ, in
updates
--cve CVES, --cves CVES
Include packages needed to fix the given CVE, in
updates
--sec-severity {Critical,Important,Moderate,Low}, --secseverity
{Critical,Important,Moderate,Low}
Include security relevant packages matching the
severity, in updates
If it's reasonable to have such toggles for fwupdmgr, we're happy to
send a pull request for it.
Thanks,
