You can perfectly do this - it's a Wiki (if you do this you probably
will do Alioth admins a faour because of saving their time to care for
the page).

The sense of those metapackages is to support all fields which can make
some reasonable use from the package in question. So if I understand
you correctly *all* packages would need such an entry because we do not
want to hide this packages say for instance from astronomers because the
package is simply "hidden" in for instance robotics. So the tasks are
not intending an exclusive categorisation but rather reflect what is
useful when doing a certain task.
I'd be happy to "proxy" the edit of the tasks files for you in case you
are not sure. Just tell me what name the binary packages might get.
Kind regards
Andreas.
