Hello Sergio,
something went horribly wrong with the formatting of my previous email.
Here it is again, hopefully in a more readable form.

As I understand it, filing an ITP bug allows who is interested to
comment on the proposed inclusion of the specific package in the
archive. I find it an useful policy.
If the package you are creating is not a simple exercise, but it is
meant to be included in the distribution, I don't see why you should not
file an ITP bug.
Cheers,
Dan
