A patch to finder.el or to *all* packages? My proposal aims to add a few
keywords to finder.el, which seem to be used already, also across
ELPA/MELPA.

Besides that, the finder keyword list is not regenerated when installing
packages. This could be improved by calling `finder-compile-keywords',
taking the `finder-keywords-hash' and dumping it to some file which is
loaded by the init.el.
