I 100% agree with all the points above.

I think that's clear. But IMO, in the case we are discussing, we
should not distribute the GnuTLS DLL, just as we don't distribute
libpng or libxml2. If we make it available through ELPA (which I don't
like, but like much more than the alternative), then of course
security releases of the relevant package would be available through
ELPA too.
