Valid point.

The problem is we get that values from the metadata, so is the 
sat-solver who parses the value, and we don't want to break the clean 
design of those tools to write to a non-solv file.

May be the solution is to output that data to a separate solv file, 
however, you still need to load the repo in the pool to look the attributes.
