not really, unless you regard kde packages in [extra] as duplicates of those in [kde-mod]. jre and jdk is just sun's jdk split into two packages for the sole purpose of having smaller binary packages, but serve no purpose at all if you are building from a pkgbuild.
however, if you still see it as problematic, you can well remove it, i'll continue to use it personally anyway..
cheers
The analogy doesn't carry very well here.. The kdemod repos 1) are not officially supported or endorsed, and 2) contain patches that change functionality. That being said, I wouldn't go so far as to entirely delete the package, I just think it's a useless duplication of effort
