But what we are defining is _exactly_ physical file storage. As others
have pointed out, you can map access directories on top using your web
server if necessary. I think the guiding priciples have to be simplicity
and obviousness for the person committing docs, not ease of navigability
(although that comes with it, to an extent.)

This is why I keep shouting about only have one set of docs directories,
and one set of projects directories, and everything working the same for
Mozilla itself and other projects/modules.
