The paths are shorter if everything is under one folder, which is why I think we copy today. At one point, I tried to only copy the set of Google Closure Library files that actually mattered which is a small subset of the whole thing, but it was a bit buggy so going back to that would be more work. Doing the "file math" to compute the paths to the SDK from wherever your project is could be tricky if you have stuff on different disk drives or using UNC and things like that.

Well, the easiest implementation is to simply not run the Google Closure compiler at the end of the compiler steps. But then to get your release version you will compile the whole debug version again. It would be more work to add an option to simply generate a release version from the js-debug folder. -Alex
