IMO this should not only state when it is to be used, but also what
it is used for and by whom. IOW who is the intended receiver. What
will they do with the info provided in this field?

Should this also include non-libraries that were included?
publicsuffix is a package providing *data* that is often translated
into binary data during package builds and thus included. But it is
not a "library" in the traditional way.
