I have been looking what Fedora is (or was) doing with Jigdo. It seems to solve some problems and create new ones[1].
Let me look into that.
From the os directory something like this should produce jigdo files/templates for all associated iso files.
for arch in i386 x86_64 do rsync -a --delete --delete-excluded \ --exclude 'repodata/' --exclude 'EULA' \ --exclude 'GPL' --exclude 'NOTES/' \ --exclude 'RELEASE-NOTES*' --exclude 'RPM-GPG-KEY*' \ --link-dest=../$arch/ $arch/ ${arch}.jigdo/
for iso in $(find ../isos/i386/ -name '*.iso' -size +100000) do jigdo-file make-template --force -i $iso \ -j ${iso%.iso}.jigdo -t ${iso%.iso}.template \ --label CentOS=$arch.jigdo/ \ --uri CentOS=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/os/$arch/ \ ${arch}.jigdo// done done
After the files/templates are created they can be moved to a different/better location as well as updating the Servers section if desired.
Hope this helps someone,
