But, of course, billions of scripts already run rpm and yum commands
in cron and other automated systems, so the only way you could
add a features like asking "Did you mean this?" is by adding
a new option to make it do that in order to preserve the existing
behavior and avoid breaking scripts. Then the problem is that no
one knows about the new option (or maybe the new option is simply
spelled "yum search" - oh wait! That option already exists :-).
