I, as maintainer of the Debian packages, want to keep the deskbar-applet package separate. There are several reasons for this, the most important one is, that I don't want to force people to install the complete python/python-gtk stack (which is necessary for deskbar-applet), if people only want to run tracker-search-tool. The fedora people are of course free to choose their package layout as they want. I don't think we have to match them. Each distro should ship it as it fits best to their policies and procedures.
