No I don't like the idea of an additional repo priority mapping because it makes things more complicated rather than easier.
The goal should be to preassign repo priorities in a way so that the unsuspecting user does not have to change them.
Right.
The reason why I am suggesting default repo priorities is that things should work out of the box. Look at bug https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=489124. Fallacies like these are really unnecessary and can even hit an expert user hacking compilers like me.
But those bugs wouldn't happen if all repos had priority=99 as a default. Everything else gets in the way of local policies set by the system admin.
