They aren't necessarily generic helpers. For example, two of the three
HPGL-handling classes don't start with "#" (nor with "gf.") and they don't
anything that makes sense to a patch that doesn't deal with HPGL plotters.
This is because it's easier to get stuff installed if I don't make a new
library for each topic. Making separate libraries doesn't make my life any
easier in any other aspect.
I don't know why this discussion gets moved to pd-list instead of pd-dev.
Not particularly against it, but I don't see the point.
