The difference between 1.1 and 1.2 is very, very superficial. I couldn't care less if a project has some GitHub-specific marker or not, especially that I've seen several code hosting places come and go already. On a second thought, this GitHub-specific marker of being a fork is somewhat important. I skip forks, going to their original. Fork on GitHub usually means that somebody either bookmarked the project or wanted to make some small changes and possibly send them back to the upstream -- at least that's how I perceive fork markers on GitHub.
