I can understand you POV but you should also note that since there are no docs
in the package it is quite difficult for the final user to understand how
things works. Those man pages could help :)

BTW, I also think that GUI files should be in a separate package. This is
because lots of virtual machine don't have a graphical environment and having
them to install gnome just to these drivers is not right IMHO.

These CentOS/RHEL packages do that:

HTH,
