If something like this were even added to Debian, it would be added to
non-free (or perhaps contrib, given that the package itself doesn't actually
contain non-free software, but that's another flamewar).

Sure, not only is Debian a completely Free operating system as defined by
the DFSG, but there is also recognition that sometimes, non-Free software
must be used to solve a problem, and the project provides a method for
'embracing and extending' it.
