possibly we should even move to having each engine have a subdir in
datadir for their own stuff so as to not get in the way of each
other...

I definitely agree that databases should be decoupled from
directories, and that engines should have places to put stuff. I
logged a feature request bug for MySQL (41306) on this issue in case
anyone wants to se my crazy hair-brained ideas about that :) I think
having an engine have it's own subdir (say $datadir/engines/$engine)
is almost more important even. Otherwise, $datadir is just going to
get trashed with all sorts of random files; or it will become more
confusing to have to track which files go to which engine that could
live anywhere on the file-system.
