Yoda's name isn't even mentioned until Episode 2. I think that happens with other characters too.
Plus you lose things like "Luke, I am your father", among others. I don't think I'd ever want to know the little green creature acting ridiculous towards Luke was Yoda. That's better as a suprise.
There is no doubt. Vader and Yoda's reveals are ruined if you watch them chronologically.
