Hey John, basically I agree with you. Placing literals in the same package as the qualifier makes things much more clear.
However, up to now we followed the "literal" sub-package pattern everywhere (AFAIK). I also used it in the Servlet module [1] because I saw that other modules did it this way. So I would prefer to be consistent and keep using the literal package like we do it in other places.
