Are these changes essential?
I mean, the directories you excluded -- will they be needed in future?
And what does its maintainer say about the changes you made?

I'm not too sure if this is OK.

																			  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I understand that packaging caddy is important for you, but I think it is also important to keep in mind that we can not go about breaking the whole world just because of that.
The problem I see with the current state is that it will create additional work for the maintainer to include those things in while doing transition. grpc is a very important package with a number of reverse
dependencies. In principle, uploading to experimental should be harmless, but I think we should consider to ask the maintainer once about it.

For *now*, I could build this and push to my personal repo, and you can fetch from there for time being if you'd like that
Let me know if you agree/disagree.
