Yes, this is posible to include it in gnustep-make and/or gnustep-base.
Since, nobody seems to disagree with your policy, let's adopt it.
Evan, would you mind to write this document (text) and post it on 
debian-devel (I suggest to cc to discuss-gnustep and 
pkg-gnustep-maintainers).

I also suggest to renaming source packages everytime.
for example, I won't rename addresses source package (because it 
contains app and frameworks) , but I will rename binary packages only 
:
addressmanager -> addressmanager.app
addresses-framework -> addresses.framework
addressview-framework -> addressview.framework
addresses-goodies -> ... I don't know. if someone has an idea ...
