My general strategy for creating bindings these days is to create a set of low-level bindings (usually in a ll) module that maps directly to the native API, then high level bindings that encapsulate the low-level bindings into safe Rust, often following Rust naming conventions. The exact strategy for high-level bindings tends to depend on the native library, but ideally the library is object ordiented and has a reasonable memory-management strategy. In that case structs + dtors + impls tend to work very well.

Adding high-level SDL bindings would be a fine thing.

FWIW, these bindings were initially created a long time ago and I recall them being sort of awkward. There may be better ways to organize them, and I encourage you to make any modifications that you need.

Sounds like a good way of tackling it. I'll take a peek at some of your other projects to make sure I'm going the right way, and I'll tackle this in the coming weeks.
