KiCad simulation library?

Is there a library with simulation models for KiCad? Cannot find it here.

I have some simulation models of quite generic components (e.g. a twinax transmission line with parameters Zodd and Zeven) and would like to make them available so at some point they just are there ready to use.

Basic simulation symbols are in the Simulation_SPICE symbol library: Simulation_SPICE.kicad_sym · master · KiCad / KiCad Libraries / KiCad Symbols · GitLab

There is a Simulation_SPICE.sp file in the same location with some corresponding simulation models.

In the currently published article, https://www.kicad.org/discover/spice/

KiCad does not currently bundle any third party SPICE libraries. SPICE models are generally available to download from manufacturers’ websites.

For KiCad simulation examples, see :
* demos/simulation · master · KiCad / KiCad Source Code / kicad · GitLab (https://docs.kicad.org/9.0/en/eeschema/eeschema.html#simulator) > some demonstration projects are included in the KiCad distribution. They can be found in the demos/simulation directory

If it is added to this sample, it is likely to be seen by the
