Does dnf5 support some sort of explicit vendor change or an automatic rollover in the case one vendor deprecates a package while another still has it?

One example that would benefit from either would have been the FFMPEG package which migrated from RPMFusion to Fedora, without the automatic vendor change users with the RPMFusion package would have been using a deprecated package without knowing.

It is also not uncommon for package maintainers to put a work-in-progress version on COPR, having to switch back and forth would be fairly tedious.
