I'm contemplating about what exactly needs to be done. We wanted to
avoid using macros hyph-xx.tex, so that it would remain easy enough to
do auto-conversion to whatever other format might be needed (for
javascript, OpenOffice, ...). I'll write you a bit more about that and
would then suggest a tiny brainstorming.

In any case we would need to know which patterns to include in case
that somebody decides to generate patterns for some other tools than
TeX. A minimal set or a full set?

One important remark: you probably wanted your package to do the
hackery in luatex in particular? You might want to cooperate with Élie
Roux who wants to reimplement pattern loading in LuaTeX if you want to
use some extra features.
