If the package in question is on an ISO, we can only speculate if it was 
installed from the ISO.
So we would have individual downloads + possibly any/all ISOs (one or 
more times).

Exactly.  So sense hiding officially non-maintained packages.  Many work 
perfectly well.  And for those that don't, resulting bug reports could 
result in them being fixed.
