It is not finally clear but it is one place for private scripts. But there are other places too. The script must be published under an opened licence like MIT which is common for the pwb framework.
pywikibot/bot/misc should be reserved for rarely used scripts, special scripts which is out of scope or deprecated scripts to be archived. featured.py might be a candidate and there is another one in review for that place.
Drtrigon was the first who used this space but he is no longer active at mediawiki/Wikimedia stuff. All other private spaces are more or less unused.
I startet my private work space there for my special scripts particulary used on de-wiki which improved my workflow. It is not a fork of the pwb but a private supplement. I am developing now with git/gerrit and use Tortoisegit but my bots are running on a server instance with svn resp. TortoiseSVN. Now I defined pywikibot/bots/xqbot as an external in svn and it is easy to update new code to the working copy of my bot running instance and otoh it would be a benefit to keep the version history of development.
