Would it not be preferable to have these in the extras?  It seems to
me that extras could hold officially sanctioned utilities that do not
need to be part of the distribution.  On the one hand, this makes them
easier to find and on the other it relieves the burden of having to
maintain them and replica/pull them when not required.  TeX makes a
good case, ghostscript less so.

Mature contribs ought to be migrated to extras as well.  Sooner,
rather than later.
