Except it isn't one of the contrib modules. The fact that you think of
it as being like them doesn't make it one of them.

Which is one very good reason why it should be a separate RPM, no? If
it were in the contrib RPM then you could not install that RPM *at all*
on a machine that didn't have all of pgadmin's dependencies. I don't
know offhand what its dependencies are, but I'd imagine they include a
fair number of "GUI" packages.
