I see. Attached is my proposal for a more up to date overview.

Please note the TODO.txt description. Maybe it should just be removed,
and possibly be moved to the doxygen devdocs if it is supposed to
exist.

Also, it seems that the helpers and tools dir have sort of similar purpose.

Sweet is the eeschema analog to pcbnew's pretty.  It's just the name
given to the new component library file format.  Once sweet is
implemented KiCad will be pretty sweet.  Yes, it's silly.  But what's
life without a little whimsy.

Possibly, that's why it's been kept around.  Once the new schematic and
file formats are completed, I will remove the new/ folder.
