It IMHO is not necessary, but makes things a whole lot easier for 
everyone -- just like putting the repo files for yum into a foo-release 
package ;-)

I would never suggest that to people -- or -- that way lie dragons: 
quickly someone will test-build a package for review in Fedora and not 
notice that it requires something from RPM Fusion as dep. Rpmnewfile 
that uers need to manually merge is another bad side-affect.
