I think src/bin would be a seriously bad place for it, because that
carries the presumption that "there can be only one", whereas in reality
this will be more like an example of one way to do it. contrib seems OK.

(And no, it should NOT be perceived as "tightly integrated to core".
The entire point of the design is to keep that behavior separate.)
