One of the key features that MS pushed was it's easy deployment. Simply
uploading/copying your application to the server should be enough.

Except when it isn't enough?

VS.NET help on deployment indicates that, while using a deployment project
requires administrative access to IIS, " we recommend deploying your project
[as opposed to just copying it] in most cases, because it allows you to take
advantage of extensive deployment project management features, such as
registration and IIS configuration."

What problems might simply uploading/copying run into? I.e., what web
application features require "registration and IIS configuration"?
 
Generally nothing .NET requires registration or IIS configuration.
(Of course your web folder needs to be configured as an IIS application, but
that is standard for any web site.)

You'll only run into problems if you need to use old COM components, or if
you need to access the registry or other sensitive shared areas of the
hosted server.
