I would love this for Rawhide. This would also allow `dnf downgrade` to work, which would be very useful when things go south. In stable releases, you could in theory downgrade from version in `updates` repository to version from `fedora` repository`, but that is not possible in Rawhide :/
It's pretty easy to do this with the Koji CLI:
koji download-build --arch=x86_64 --arch=noarch (NVR) dnf downgrade *.rpm
While this might sound useful, it is not that useful when your system is borked and you want to get it up and running again.
IOW this is strawman to the original request and my reasoning for the +1.
In what situation could you do 'dnf downgrade' but not that?
In a situation I don't have other computer to explore Koji, in a case that for example Gnome was updated and it is not just about downgrading one package due to dependencies.
You don't need another computer to 'explore koji', you can do it all with the koji CLI. 'koji list-tag-history' to find previous builds of a given package, for e.g. Admittedly it's a bit clunkier than the web UI, but it's all there. 'koji help' lists all the commands...
