I happen to prefer those particular long names. Some short names are great like conf instead of config of configuration.
But: 1. topo - just yuck, 2. sec - I want to easily see the security dir, 3. wars - to implementation specific. Have we verified with other projects where their security artifacts are? My concern is that it may be more problematic to facilitate knox being able to write to them by putting them in data than it is to not have knox write to them at all. Is it possible that the server having to persist the master and the like is a violation of some sort?
