Err, why ? What is the problem you're trying to solve ?

Some people will argue that a new binary package will be created for a small 
script.

What do people on debian-perl think ? Should cme live in its own binary 
package ?

Parser modules are targeted for specific applications and are useless without 
this specific application. For instance libconfig-model-lcdproc is useless 
without lcdproc. Currently, libconfig-model-perl suggests 
libconfig-model-dpkg-perl, libconfig-model-openssh-perl . 

All the best
