I'm hesitating between:

- putting all drivers below a drivers/  directory

- or having drivers/raster/ , drivers/vector/ and drivers/mixed/

This later organization avoids a bit the issue of a monolithic drivers/ with 250+ subdirectories (who knows if Windows might not limit to 256 :-)),  but it may involve moving code around when something that was raster or vector only later gains the other capability.

A real (legacy) Windows limitation is not around 256 subdirs but around 260 characters in filepath, subject to tool capabilities. It still hits today in some cases. "drivers/" can make a difference.

I tend to prefer the first option anyways.
