we do actually get the occasional question about why hstore is not at
least in contrib on IRC.
I guess some of those questions might be the result of the
confusing(wrong) wording on the website which says "Stable version,
included into PostgreSQL distribution, released under BSD license" on
http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera/oddmuse/index.cgi?Hstore .

So there is definitely some real-world demand for hstore (at least on
IRC much more than ISBN for example)
