Let's try to make a list of categories ?
What about:

* css
* html
* time
* mime
* mail (?)
* log (?)
* fs (?)
All of these packages (IMHO) should be named as
node-${CATEGORY}utils, i.e.:
* node-httputils
To avoid the case where one upstream module gets called 'httputils',
i suggest a different name scheme:
nodemodules-
* streams
* async
* module loading (amd, requirejs, ...)
Here a wiki page to list packages and modules included:
https://wiki.debian.org/Javascript/Nodejs/CommonPackages
Please, populate it!
The problem with those bundles is that we'll never know if/when
a module inside them isn't required any more.
Mmm .. can't codesearch.debian.net help on this ?
Of course, but it isn't as straightforward as checking dependencies.
I propose that nodemodules-time *must* list which modules it Provides,
so others packages depend on node-ms (in that example) and do *not*
depend on nodemodules-time.

Sometimes one module is clearly better than others and we try to patch less popular modules away, but sometimes it isn't so clear so we end up with several packages doing the same thing, only in different subtle ways. A nodejs toolkit providing common low-level utilities could be also a matter of discussion. Why not try to identify some categories (as suggested for node-ms: time, or email or filesystem ...) to regroup those small modules ?

Another approach could be to group all modules which are coming from the same team.
