Being that getting this into a distribution is the intent, with
everyone's consent I'd be willing to prepare and maintain such a package
with all contributed modules (co-maintainers are certainly welcome to
join in the fun).

Otherwise it seems I'll be having three packages to produce and
maintain; Gtk2::Ex::Constants, Gtk2::Ex::Utils and
Gtk2::Ex::Simple::Dialogs (not that this bothers me, just want to make
sure it's The Right Thing to do).

A list-vote maybe?

All in favour of one package for the Gtk2::Ex name space vote +1.
All in favour of many packages for the Gtk2::Ex name space vote -1.
