Going slightly on a tangent here: For tools generally considered cool/useful, but where the maintainer does not know about/want to bother with the tool directory, should we set up a wiki page, add the JSON for these tools, and add the "&action=raw" URL? That would allow the community (as in, some of slightly obsessive people;-) to maintain the list for these tool authors.
The only problem I see is potential duplication. Maybe the importer can flag up multiple tools with identical URL?
