I disagree. First of all, a single directory woudn't be sufficient:
For example, you generate not only sources, but also resources. Both
may be generated for tests as well. So we end up with four. Besides,
it is not unusual to process one generators files with another
generator. In other words, the formers output directory becomes the
latters input directory.

But, what makes me wonder the most: Why do you need to tell the
compiler that there is a new source directory? This is the plugins
task and it should do so automatically?
