I would like to see an option added to the web UI to allow scheduling the
downloading of packages to a machine without installing them.  

The benefit to the end user is that I can be sure that software is on the
machine and ready to be upgraded during a maintenance window when other work may
prevent me from reaching RHN to retrieve the software.

This would be a web equivalent to the "-d" option to up2date.
