Perhaps something more along the lines of:
/modules <- empty, except for directories
/console <- console related modules
blank_saver.ko, daemon_saver.ko, fade_saver.ko, green_saver.ko,
logo_saver.ko, rain_saver.ko, snake_saver.ko, star_saver.ko,
vesa.ko, warp_saver.ko
/devices <- device drivers.
joy.ko
/emulation <- like linux, fpu, etc...
fpu.ko, gnufpu.ko, ibcs2.ko, ibcs2_coff.ko, linux.ko
/fs <- filesystem related modules
atapi.ko, ccd.ko, cd9660.ko, coda.ko, fdesc.ko, kernfs.ko, mfs.ko,
msdos.ko, nfs.ko, null.ko, portal.ko, procfs.ko, umap.ko, union.ko,
vinum.ko
/net <- network related modules.
if_disc.ko, if_ppp.ko, if_sl.ko, if_tun.ko, ipfw.ko
I think this takes care of everything currently in /modules.
