what I'd like to end up with is that if in a yum update process, there is an update to yum itself - that yum update should run first, once done, yum should then restart and run through the rest of yum update.
Well, plugin to remove all packages but yum, if yum is within updated packages, is easy to write. But plugin can only stop yum execution and I can't see way to run yum again after yum update by itself.
I don't see why yum couldn't update yum, then exec the new yum program, listing the remaining packages as install arguments. You'd need to unlock the lock file before calling execve.
