I'd tend to agree as well. Personally the argument to have separate
implementations of the client is useful. After all, it's not a
standard until there are two independent implementations.
Also it reduces deltas on changes.

And this is just a packaging issue:
apt-get install tp-everything
or
apt-get install tp-client
But yes, packaging separately makes sense.
