It would be nice if I could put the library into sites/all/libraries, or use Libraries API for the jQuery library...

Hmm.. I agree this sounds like a good feature and easy enough to implement. Do you know of any other modules specifically where this would fix a problem? or are we just talking about good organization and future proofing?

Mostly good organization and future proofing. For module upgrades/updates, and for version control, this is a major win.

For a rather simple implementation of this feature — using Libraries API or just sites/all/libraries — check out the FullCalendar module. In particular, see #980886: Require Libraries API.

always nice to be able to update the module w/o the risk of overwriting the separately downloaded library/file.
