Description of problem:
In the webui, you can only apply errata. It is very commonplace to only apply security errata, however you can't do this with spacewalk.

It would be great to only apply "Security Errata," or "Bugfix Errata," or "Enhancement Errata," or any combination of these. Having to select all errata, and then de-select items you don't want that are of certain categories is more manual and can lead to mistakes.

Additionally, it would be great if this could be put into spacecmd, as well. Right now you can only do this:

errata_apply

It would be great if you could do this:

errata_security_apply
errata_bugfix_apply
errata_enhancement_apply

Then you can ideally script this and automate the scheduling of your errata.

Thanks!
Jason
