I don't mind.
I don't know about the Apache stuff.

See the <store> definition. There is a <parameter 
name="rootpath"> and a <parameter name="workpath">.
They are set to store/metadata and work/metadata per default. 
Set it to any (full) path you like to control the actual 
location. In the default setting they go into the current work 
directory.

You can create folders inside the Domain.xml. Use this for your 
standard folders which should always be there. See the 
<data><objectnode> definition.

Of course you can create directories during run-time using the 
WebDAV MKCOL. Slide contains a WebDAV client library. But you 
can also use MS Webfolders or whatever WebDAV client you like.
