I've just published a blog post about querying modular content [1] which
might be useful if you maintain modules.

It should help you, at least partly, in the following example scenarios:

Rebuilding dependencies after major changes
* A new version of an interpreted language lands in Fedora as a set of
standalone packages. All packages depending on that language — both
standalone and modular — need to be rebuilt.
* An ABI change is brought by a new package version and all of its
dependencies — both standalone and modular — need to be rebuilt.

Retiring packages
* A packager decides to retire a library. They check whether any other
packages — both standalone and modular — require it before they can retire
it.

Discovering content with a CVE
* A CVE has been found in Django 1.6. The security team needs to find out
whether we ship Django 1.6 in Fedora either as a standalone or a modular
package.
