At first I agree with you that few of them can smoothly removed, but let me
explain one thing.

The main reason why I use (sometimes redundant) full packages name is the fact
that those packages are also (till now only) avilable as a separate packages
from my website. When I download some stand-alone package and try to install it
it's much more readable to see "fuse-lib > 2.3 is required by ..." than
"libfuse.so.2()(64bit) is required by ...". In the first option I know what
should I install, in the second I have to find it out first [1]. 

[1] - I know that novadays (in FC4+ out-of-box?) it's possible to use yum to
resolve dependencies and install required packages.

The only problem I see is the situation when package was renamed in a newer
version, but SPEC file should be then updated.

Do you really think that using full package names in the Requirement section
instead of letting RPM do it, can cause some problems or is an out-of-date 
habit?

True.
