the approach looks good. I think I would prepare two separate patches,
adding the packages one by one. And I would prepend the comment "Needs
doxygen" by "FIXME", so we know there is a TODO item.

If you feel like it, you can also add in comment a list of all the optional
inputs, so that it will be easier to add them once they are available (see
ffmpeg for an example).
