I don't think that is what ftp masters wants. They have communicated 
this clearly and lots of NEW packages were rejected as well.

I quote again "- put together packages that belong together; I am not 
sure here, but
    wouldn't it be fine to have just one package node-d3 or node-babel
    that contains all corresponding modules (though their different 
versions
    might create problems in keeping track of them)?"

If you are proposing something that is against the recommendation of 
ftp masters, you really need to convince them. In case of NEW, their 
decision matters, not yours.

It is fine if you don't agree with their decision. But you will need to 
override it before proposing something that is against their preference.
