I share the same concern. The initial Registry implementation did recurse
into directories to look for Registry files because I wanted to support a
kind of runtime deployment model where you would place your portlet classes
and registry fragment in WEB-INF/classes and the Registry would
automatically
pick up these definitions.

Unfortunately, this model has some limitations:
- it is not always possible to deploy on runtime if you have Turbine modules
  like Actions because you need to ensure that the packages are registered 
  in TR.p and Turbine 2 does is not reconfigurable.
- it's harder to maintain with scripts and automated processing tools
