Copy'n'paste doesn't work that well with macros. Spectool is great for getting
the sources, but it doesn't give project URLs. As far as I see it, the
alternative is getting the sources, building the RPM and running
 $ rpm -qpi package.rpm
to see the expanded URL...

Anyway, even if the project name were ridiculously long, I doubt that you'd
spend many characters spelling it out explicitly, compared to using the %{name}
macro. It's a huge help, e.g. when you browse the review queue or look at spec
files at pkgs.fedoraproject.org.
