I like what you are suggesting.  I do remember some people saying that they
would like to be able to incorporate files into the project no matter where
they are.  Currently I have the gEDA Manager written so it keeps track of
all of this.  That is, you can have files in the project from anywhere on
your system.  However, if people like this idea.  I could make the gEDA
Manager adhere to this specific directory structure.  What do others think
of this?
