excludedocs can be done using the ability to set macros which are
available within the rpm-python api, so you could easily write a plugin
to handle this, or use a macro file in /etc/rpm/macros.nodocs or
something.

Excludepath is essentially a special case (NULL) relocation, and
relocations currently aren't supported within rpm-python.
