 Been thinking about this and I'm still not sure. On the one hand
yum-cron will already randomly install anything newer it finds in any
repo. ... so installing new keys by default makes some kind of sense.
 On the other hand, adding all new keys without any oversight seems kind
of bad from a security point of view. Esp. as it'd do CA keys, and all
GPG keys are global.

 If we add a new option I think it should be a yum option that yum-cron
just turns on though, and if we want to default it to off then with the
patch to allow generic overrides we might as well just tell people to
use assumeyes. On by default does make some sense though, I guess we
should probably ping some Fedora security people and see what they
think.
