I wouldn't care too much about it. As long as there a place where users can
get updated/fixed versions from, they will be able to get it. And updating
HAL isn't really something our users do on a daily base. And if you provide
distributions with a way to get latest HAL with latest stable KDE, there is
no need for some extra module.
I'd think an extra module isn't needed.
Greetings, Stephan
