I don't think so -- "Look, this package has an epoch, I'll add that to
my package too"? Hardly. If I'm interested in the version of a package,
I'm interested in the epoch, too, if there's one. IMO, the only reason
against listing the epoch here is that RPM itself doesn't understand it
when specifying packages:

nils@wombat:~> rpm -q gimp-2:2.4.1-1.fc8.x86_64
package gimp-2:2.4.1-1.fc8.x86_64 is not installed
nils@wombat:~> rpm -q gimp-2.4.1-1.fc8.x86_64
gimp-2.4.1-1.fc8
