This seems reasonable to me. It's in line with the recent move from contrib to bin. It'll just be quite a bit bigger of an undertaking. (50 threads to discuss the merits of each module separately?) Maybe start by picking the top 5 and sort those out.
+1 for Extensions directory for 9.6
This doesn't seem worth delaying the release for.
