No. If a plugin is placed in both repositories (in the same version, with the
same QGIS requirements etc), Installer will display it only once. Let me use
an example: currently there is about 30 plugins in the new repo, however your
installer can show only a dozen of them. Don't worry, the rest is still on the
list, just assigned to the old one.

The new repo is official, not contributed, so in Qgis 1,8 and master it's added
automagically without clicking the button. Regarding to de discussion on qgis-
developer, I'll release an installer update for older Qgises.

The http://plugins.qgis.org/plugins is for humans and I believe this one is
more important to be simple. And it's rather impossible to merge the two
things into one because of paging, searching etc.
Btw. there was a bug in master that was adding that url to Installer, but
newer versions should automatically replace it with the correct version.
