It may be my lack of coffee this morning, but I think you and
hasufell are saying the same thing but using "making commits less
atomic" conversely.

Just so i make sure i'm understanding this right, hasufell's
suggestion is to, instead of rolling a single "atomic" commit for
every package being stabilized under a tracker bug, that the whole
set of packages gets stabilized via one commit.  Thus ensuring one
doesn't get half a kde update, and rollbacks can be done at a single
commit level, etc.

Do I have this right?

(note, since all of these package changes are for a particular
single purpose imo it would still be an atomic commit)
