It's always a judgement call.

I tend to take config back even further: if the package has only one config
file then let it stand on its own as /etc/thatthing.conf. But many packages
have stuff split into multiple files, so /etc/thatthing directory like you
suggested. But then some pkgs are sophisticated (or maybe just bloated)
they have /etc/thatthing dir for a bunch of stuff and /etc/thatthing/conf.d
dir for tweakable "configuration" via multiple files. I'm sure it's
justified in the minds of those who endorse it.
