I would argue that the rules file should be shipped wherever standard device support stuff is shipped (I think that is udev, though anything else installed as "standard" would be fine). libu2f-host is not required to use U2F devices. A supporting web browser is all that's needed, typically Chromium etc, and soon Firefox. Including it makes these devices work out-of-the-box, which is what people expect. Requiring a library package to be installed that isn't even used just raises the bar unnecessarily. (just like every other device I don't own but have udev rules installed for).
