I think the general consensus might be that it works fine as is.

If that's not the case, then I'd say (as you suggest) that the first step is
determining if this part of code is open for discussion, and if so, what
that process should be.

If we are considering possible changes, I'd throw in the suggestion for
allowing (or actually requiring) the readme screenshot images to be named
references to files, rather than files named according to the current
convention.

Then you could allow these file references to have an attribute indicating
whether the packager should include it in the zip of not.
