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.
no! yum, on re-entry, needs to re-parse the metadata - its possible remote end metadata has changed for the new yum as well.
