These are not in debian proper though but 'only' in the external
debian-multimedia repo, as I understand it (not that that really matters much).

I would be in favour of that, since it just seems The Right Thing To Do.
However, it would probably be inconvenient for users of other distros where no
such packages exist yet. I think, however, that we should nevertheless just
forge ahead with this; livna etc. will likely package it soon enough as well
then. In the mean time, Christian could create source rpms for people :D

Let's see what others think...
