I would like to help and I think we need to think carefully of the layout / 
structure though i.e. how to breakup the entities in files and/or directories.
I would suggest that, at least in the first step, we do it in a simple way like 
the following:

1) create the new component, named for example "datamodel" (please suggest a 
better name)
applications/common-layer
applications/functional-layer
2) move all the entity xml files from the applications to the "datamodel" 
component keeping the files separated as they are, but adding a prefix; for example

applications/accounting/entitidef/entitymodel.xml

will be moved to:

applications/datamodel/entitidef/accounting-entitymodel.xml

The end result will be a "datamodel" component with an entitidef/ folder 
containing several files, approximately one per application component
My preference goes to use the package path but add complexity for few. I see :
applications/functional-layer/entitydef/model/entitymodel-accounting.xml
applications/functional-layer/entitydef/eca/eeca-accounting.xml
applications/functional-layer/servicedef/model/services-accounting.xml
applications/functional-layer/servicedef/eca/seca-accounting.xml

But currently some component already have multiple entitymodel file to segment entities so why not :

applications/functional-layer/entitydef/model/accounting/entitymodel.xml
applications/functional-layer/entitydef/model/accounting/entitymodel-invoice.xml
applications/functional-layer/entitydef/model/accounting/entitymodel-payment.xml
applications/functional-layer/entitydef/eca/accounting/eeca.xml

3) similar approach for eeca files

4) add the relevant entries in

applications/datamodel/ofbiz-component.xml
We can simplify entries with regexp like this
<entity-resource type="model" loader="main" location="entitydef/model/*"/>
or just
<entity-resource type="model" loader="main" dir-location="entitydef/model/accounting/"/>
