good for updates?

What I do now is rsync all the stuff in a directory and below on GA Tech for RHL9 update RPMs. This sounds like the perfect mating of technologies for a task like this...lots of files, some of them sizeable (X11 and kernel sources for examples are typically quite big), lists of files that change occasionally. Thoughts?

Should this sort of idea maybe be incorporated into yum (the update doodad for FC)? Good idea to maintain up-to-date distributions (e.g., you have all your FC RPMs in a directory, NFS exported and ready for doing installations, but if there's an RPM released for a Mutt update, the old Mutt RPM gets deleted and replaced with the newer one)?
