One of the main problems of route reflection is that the best path decision is done centrally. The best route is not seen as from the router making the forwarding decision, but from the route reflector's point of view. Depending on network topology, geographic spread end peering/transit topo, this might/will have significant negative effects.
This is where good use of clusters and logical network design are necessary, but I don't think this is a route-reflector specific problem, more a general networking problem once your network starts groing and you start deploying a more complex edge/core based topology. I don't think this is a reason to not use reflection as oppossed to full mesh.
