Nah, my guess is that in the "old times" it wasn't as fashionable to watch the recent CPAN uploads every day and rate them immediately. That's why COG, BDFOY, et al. slipped below the radar.
As it is often said: CPAN is what it is because it allows anyone to upload junk, not despite of it. I think it is fine if you upload "vanity" modules/bundles, as long as they don't clutter useful namespaces.
