Hi Pierre,
-1 You can't reject them, it's too late, they are all over.
But you could indeed make it more obvious that they were made to link with a commercial product.
Products like PDFLib are indeed very unclear about that and use the terms "open-source" or
"free" just to have you try their products. I have bad customer experiences with them and
will never use their products again. A warning sign on PECL might prevent some bad situations when
the seller on the other side doesn't make it clear enough.
