To avoid update issues with KDE from 'extra' and 'KDEmod', I think it's better to place the KDEmod repo at the top of the repo-list.
I once had problems because extra wanted to update my kdemod, but the problem was solved my moving the kdemod repo on top of my list.

In pacman 3.1 that file will be gone, so no worries.
It bothered me even though it didn't seem to be a problem. I just edited the file properties of the core file so file managers saw it as a txt file rather than a crash file. Anyway, it's pretty cool that pacman 3.1 will condense pacman.d into one file. I think that will make it more kiss-ish
Although the core change seemed to go well with my last update, I found a lot of glitchs with missing libs. Most of them I sorted out, but a few I'm sure was due to the repository im using not being totally synced up to date. Hopefully everything will go back to normal when I update later tonight.
I know arch is a rolling release, but I think sometimes the updates are too quick and speratic! Like I can't keep up! Ugh. I usually update the system on the weekend, but often, I'll find something broken, or a minor glitch here and there due to an update that I missed, and is normally fixed after another -Syu.
The Updates just seem a little unorganized, but's it's probably just me having bad timing!

Well, no need to use two different files, you can do this directly in pacman.conf .
I agree, this seems to be a regression to the original behaviour.
Now if you had a single mirror list and automatically appended the /.../.../repository list, that would make sense.

In pacman 3.1 , the mirror list looks like :
...
# United States
Server = ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/$repo/os/i686
Server = ftp://ftp.nethat.com/pub/linux/archlinux/$repo/os/i686
...
and pacman.conf :
...
[current]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[extra]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
...
I'm much happier with a single mirror list
