Its not so much a bad idea so much as it is a situation in which neither
repository has made an EL6 official release so if you're going to run in
production it would often be advised to wait for a stable launch.
Though I will say that the EPEL repo is quite stable at this point and
the release date and processes are just currently being decided on. I'm
not entirely sure of the status of rpmfusion as I'm as closely related
to that repository.
