Some parts of Koji do rely on epoch not doing down. Notably,
koji-shadow uses epoch and it will stop working correctly when epoch
is removed or decreased. koji-shadow is not currently used by Fedora
project, but it may be used in future to bootstrap new architectures.
And it is still used by third parties to rebuild Fedora packages.
