Absolutely.  If it's going to exist at all, it needs to be in rpm.
Otherwise this and the corresponding rpm changes fail the litmus test of
"will my system be the same if I download the rpm(2) and run the
transaction manually using rpm as it is if I use yum to install the
rpm".  Any time you fail that litmus test, you've put the code in the
wrong place (at least IMO).
