The main problem, AFAIK (at least that's the one that caused bug reports
and hence brought this problem to my attention) is when the MELPA recipe
points at an unmaintained branch, so you end up stuck with version
20120415 while a brand new 1.4 just came out on GNU ELPA.  This wouldn't
happen with foo-mode-1.3.0.20120415.tar.gz.
