Great!

Please do.

No :-)
In
http://groff.ffii.org/groff/contrib/macros/
you can find my ul-1.2 package which uses .dt in quite a tricky way.
However, this means that your package, whatever it does, won't be
compatible with my `ul' since there is only a single diversion trap
available.
If you like we can add your stuff too to this directory.
