Check out the list of bugs for up2date and rhn-applet in bugzilla.

Here are a couple that I'm particularly interested in:

up2date confused about $releasever for repomd sources with baseurls 
rather than mirrorlists
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=161071

rhn-applet-tui can't handle repomd repos
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=160873
