I think that's also the reason why those extensions are not in TER. If
there are updates to them, there will be a new TYPO3 version where those
extensions are shipped with. So a "regular" admin will never want to
update those extensions anyway. If you feel the urge to do it anyway,
you should do it in typo3conf/ext, so that you keep your site "upgradeable".

Cheers,
