I do not think we should make non-free packages part of the default installation. After all Debian promises that the Debian system and all its components will be free. Also Priority: standard doesn't seem appropriate for a package that is only useful for a subset of machines. A better solution might be a prompt in d-i (defaulting to No), similar to the one asking for non-free firmware which I believe already exists. Maybe it could even be integrated in said prompt.
