When PECL is better adopted by the community, and PHP provides documentation on them, I would have no problem moving it there.
Following Rasmus' mail, moving your extension also increases the convenience for you the developer and the users. As a developer you're no longer tied to PHP's release schedule, but you are free to release a new version whenever you want. For the users of your extension it means, they can have an updated version (be it a bug- or security-fix) anytime you release it and not only when a PHP version comes out. Installing a PECL based extension is as easy as $ pear install foobar See http://pecl.php.net/ for more information.
