I also are attempting a start for something which raises discussions in
some kind of regular cyclus with no real outcome.

IMHO "Suggests" is wrong because I would like to have the user have it
installed as default. The opt-out is given by the debconf question and
here I would set "No" as default.

I do not think that it is a violation to have scripts in /usr/lib. As
far as I understand it is not allowed to have arch dependant code in
/usr/share but it is not forbidden to have arch independant code in
/usr/lib. (Finally we need to avoud having another dir in the PATH ...)
Kind regards
