In a Drupal 5 installation I noticed that the "optional core modules"

comment_notify modules. The latter even included a link to its sponsor
in its description.

Apparently they both contain "package = Core - optional" in their info
file. Is this a normal practice?

Probably a copy/paste error. The module developer started with a core
module as the base, and forgot to edit this part out.

I was already a bit confused by where some modules were placing
themselves in the navigation menu, and this came up like a violation
of a last asylum.

Submit a bug for each of these modules.
