Correct, except that the license is not in question, it can be freely and
legally downloaded, but may not be (re)distributed.

Correct, this is the same. Except I created a python gtk gui app todo the
downloading, which will explain to the user that a download is necessary, why
and asks his permission todo the actual download. You may want to check this
package out. The autodownloader app used is configurable through a config file,
so it may be of use (userfriendlier, works interactively even when launched from
the menu) to the xtide case too.
