Exactly I proposed what has been already suggested today by someone
else, to create a new "part" (not a section inside main) at the same
level as main/contrib/non-free/non-US and create a separate CD image
from it (maybe with contrib in it if there are room) which can be
optionally added to the official CD set.
I can even imagine to have a separate site for it, if it grows too much.
