Be better left here?  Honestly, we have a huge Packages file already, and
keeping the stuff you propose to stash in the package up-to-date (especially
in a stable release, should this ever end up in one) is going to be an
absolute pest.  It would be much easier just to leave it on the team
website, and point people at that.

If there are programs in the package, consider whether they might be of use
to others if they were generalised.  Packaging scripts might be helpful to
others, and translation stuff could probably be handy for other languages'
translation teams.  Consider submitting the scripts for inclusion in the
relevant script bundle package, or if there is nothing appropriate, then
make a package with a useful description to carry all of these tools.

Please, think of the archive.
