They use devel repos and know the risk, they install and disable the Printing repo, or they download and manually install all from OBS, I think our current max repos added by a user with issues was 108 on the forums ;) @olaf, I think you will wind up going down a sticky road once you start re-adding stuff that can be built on OBS...
