A few remarks:
1) This will make MageiaUpdate wey slower
   (quite a lot more synthesis to parse, quite a lot more of requires
    to parse/compute)
2) Even with that behaviour, we WILL STILL FAILL on some machines
   if user has eg DVD media but not full network media
   and thus some packages may still be missing from DVD
3) Fred Lepied, Frederic Crozat & Warly have decided to remove
   all code that was adding full media and the like, checking for
   missing media, ... b/c of that

It's quite a lot more work to try to make this work than just add/link the missing media to */updates

What's more at this stage, after release.
We've a decade of history & experience of what works and what doesn't, so why try to go the bad way again?
