"upstream" means RHEL in this case, not Fedora. They dropped yum-updatesd and replaced it with with the inferior yum-cron. In case of RHEL all this yum stuff doesn't really matter because you'll use the RHEL update tools like satellite. But for CentOS this matters. PackageKit isn't really an option for a managed server setup and not everyone needs spacewalk when yum-updatesd does the job. So I propose to include it in rf that all users who like to use yum-updatesd have an easy way to install it.
