Sure, finding them is as easy as grep'ing Contents-<arch>:
axyl
horde3
And for htmlarea:
moodle
serendipity
typo3-src-4.2? (rtehtmlarea)
And no, no bugs have been filed yet (well, at least *I* haven't filed any);
what I've been doing is collect the list of packages shipping their own
copy, and file a RFP CC'ing their respective @packages.d.o address. My plan
was to make lintian aware of those libs too as soon as the packaged js libs
were uploaded.
