I'm sorry, no. Frankly I find archives containing no single subdirectory
(including the mingw-w64 autobuilds, but that's another story) very
irritating, because when you "extract here" such an archive can mess up a
complete non-related (in my workflow) mind. Lots of "official" packages do
the same, even UNIX tarballs (just pick a random GNU source tarball).
I do understand your issue, seeing that the autobuilds and mine differ in
this respect. I copied sezero's behavior, which I obviously preferred.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
