Yes it would - maybe you have a set of machines that need package 
foo-1.2.3 and another set that need foo-1.2.4. This is true for testing 
packages on smaller sets of machines before general use.

You might need to apply an update to a stable stream for example as 
opposed to maybe a seperate unstable stream with it's own repository.
