If the main use is related to web, then that's indeed a good choice.

It might make sense to request new section for javascript and/or Nodejs 
libraries (but not for applications implemented in those scripting 
languages) at some point - try compare number of packages with those of 
other sections to get a feeling when that might be relevant to propose 
(I guess that should then be raised on debian-devel list.
