Yes. Normal packaging should be a requirement for tools that are expected to be used by the standard Fedora packager or for Fedora infrastracture. For two separate reasons: - that software is easier to use and deploy, in particular to keep updated. - passing through a packaging review is a proof of minimal quality of the software. Going through the steps for packaging will uncover possible license problems, emedded libraries, and other shenanigans that might not go unnoticed as long as some build&deployment script is being used. And we want to get this info _before_ we commit to the tool.
