Is it needed to build any packages in the main Fedora repo? If not, then why not just make a COPR for it instead of putting it in the mainline repos.

Old gstreamer is used by a couple of ancient apps in fedora (banshee)  

Banshee in Fedora is using new gstreamer, see: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/banshee/blob/master/f/banshee.spec#_98

I am not too happy about bringing such an old and unmaintained (in upstream) package back to Fedora (it's latest release was in 2012), but there isn't much that can be done about it if there is a maintainer.
