Then again, I despise the new-fangled fascination with "/var" these
days. I still haven't seen a compelling argument why *data* needs to
live there, but that's just me.

More like old-fangled. Under the new Linux Filesystem Standard (LFS)
agreed upon by a number of distro's (gentoo among them I believe) it
is recommended that *all* service related data be placed under /srv.
The specifics of how data gets organized is up to the admin. Myself
for example, I place all data under /srv/<service> so I have folders
/srv/www, /srv/ftp, /srv/nfs, /srv/samba, etc. In order to keep apps
that like /var/www I've just symlinked /var/www to /srv/www.
