Please let it live separately from the main project development repository and its tags.. The spec file is also something that might be oVirt specific (because Fedora, RHEL and CentOS have a different dependencies and packaging requirements..) and should be separated from the actual upstream tarball source release.

component any time I want (with the necessary branch based way to ensure compatibility) and take the latest from the right branch for a compose.

The reason I asked about COPR is that I already use it like that, I have a special COPR project where I release optimizer bits for 3.5 [2] and 3.6 [1] in the distgit fashion. And I have a separate project for master tests and will have a separate project for 4.0 rpms. [1] https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/msivak/ovirt-optimizer-for-ovirt-...
