Actually I expressed this opinion in context of my own situation that is similar to this feature request - some time ago I wrote a patch for isearch.el that implements a new feature of displaying numeric hints on each visible lazy-isearch match. But then my doubt was that it will impact the size of isearch.el that is already one of the biggest files in the Emacs repository. Then I rewrote the patch using the seq library that helped to squeeze the patch down to a couple dozen of lines, but still I doubt the usefulness of my implemented feature. This is why I decided to release it as a separate package. So this is what I suggest to do with features that are not in high demand, or are stil experimental, or are too big to fit into the existing packages.
