Yes, I think so. And since you have already implemeted it, here only
one minor comment. I think from a systematic point of view it might
make sense to include the versions of supp-pdf.tex and supp-mis.tex
from the context version that shipped with the given texlive version.
That way texlive-metapost is sort of consistent with what is shipped
upstream but (potentially) newer versions are still used if one
installs the context package.
