The sidetag plugin code is in upstream koji. This sounds like a great
RFE for koji then?

I don't know why it's not done that way, there might be a reason or
might be an oversight, but please file a RFE on it? :) 

Side note: I recall when normal newrepos took like 40-45min (and we had
a lot less packages then), so 10min seems nice to me. But I agree if it
could be made mostly instant that would be great for this case.
