On the other hand 

Maybe the best option is to create configuration option that will start zypper 
in one of 2 modes, refresh all or refresh enabled only. System default might 
be refresh all to avoid dependency problems that many inexperienced users 
will run into if they disable refresh for some repositories, and forget that, 
while other still have ability to keep some repos on manual refresh.
