Is there some reason why should be the script listed in rpm with "path" /bin
instead of /usr/bin? Ok, I am not sure what about few packages (list below)
which require /bin/sed instead of "sed" package.

It's possible, that sed will not be found correctly for them and may there
should be set provides of "/bin/sed" too in that case. I haven't try that yet.

What is your opinion? Use of actual paths seems correctly for me.

Packages which require directly /bin/sed:
libnetdude
libpcapnav
mod_fcgid
os-prober
policycoreutils
redhat-lsb
resource-agents
xchat
