You have to consider that not all applications are as important as keeping
up with the distribution lifecycle itself.  If I have Fedora deployed in a
bunch of places, I need to be able to move to the next release which is
supported if the current release I am running is nearing EOL.  At that
point, if a module is orphaned and it happens to be a leaf application (say
the bat utility which is currently provided as a module and one I happen to
use), I don't really want it blocking my ability to upgrade.  I would
certain like to be informed about the fact but I would want to get to the
next release anyway.
