Here's something to consider during this discussion.  I haven't added
all of my packages to comps.xml because there is no group which is
really appropriate for several of them.  I don't want to add them to
some group that is only peripherally related to the function of the
package, and I'm too lazy to figure out how to add new groups [1].  I
suspect other package maintainers may have similar reasons for
dragging their feet.

Footnotes:
[1] Well, not really lazy, but I recognize that adding groups is a
significant step, and so it needs to be well justified.  I am very
busy with Real Life right now, so time spent putting together such a
justification means no time for other activities that I'm more eager
to engage in [2].
[2] Like watching the value of my retirement account fall.
