That's for right now. But look at most linux distributions, and you'll see that they include a large number of such packages, warranting their own category. My Cygwin Ports repository currently contains 90+ Perl modules and ~40 Python modules, and while there's not reason for all of them to be in a distribution, I think many are eventual candidates. In the short term, I would like to contribute the GNOME Perl and Python bindings and the PyQt bindings. This would make for a total of ~15 Perl and 10+ Python modules. So based on that potential, I would like to see these categories added now, particularly as they are already Debian categories.
