Maybe it will hurt. Some people already complained about too much features to overcome and results in a steeper learning courve. Able to do things in different ways will give a burden on the maintainance phase of applications where other people not used to these features will have to learn them also even if they already know how to do things (by the "cocoon use pattern").
