You've got a point.  There tend to be some small packages out there.

Here are the unofficial rules to included in emacs-goodies-el:

 - Must work under all Emacs flavours we ship.
 - Must byte-compile pretty cleanly (stuff defined in one Emacs but not
   another are acceptable).
 - Must support the customize interface where appropriate, in particular
   for enabling.  Users shouldn't ahve to insert anything manually in
   ~/.emacs to enable it.  I'll slowly going through code already
   present in emacs-goodies-el and submitting patches upstream to do
   this.  See `M-x customize-group emacs-goodies-el'
