For me, it's a good thing to have it in task-gnome, like we have, in 
task-kde:
Suggests:       ksaneplugin >= 2:%version
For my part, I think that people installing task-gnome/kde with the 
suggests are waiting for a whole functional desktop.
I'm not sure a lot of people are installing task-scanner to just use 
their scanner or webcam to create pdf.
My 2cts.
