There are advantages and disadvantages with either... I don't really 
have a strong opinion myself (as long as the result works). But if I had 
to choose, I'd probably say static-only, if upstream relations and ease 
of package maintenance matter. It might also result in leaner, meaner, 
and 0.1% (or something) faster games.

In my opinion, one package is fine.
