The case of a separate program and the case of a contribution to Emacs
are different.
When people contribute a new GNU package, we don't ask for any legal papers
unless they want the FSF to enforce the GPL for it.
Emacs already is an FSF-copyrighted GNU package. We could consider accepting
a change without legal papers, but it would be an exception.
