Hmmm, two directories will leave room for misinterpretation. That, I think, is
contradictionary to the clarity we should try to bring to the whole Cyrus SASL
stuff.

I'd vote for /etc/sasl2, if I have to choose. This should make clear it is
sasl and it is version 2. There will probably never be a version 1, but I'd
ignore that.

And yes! A README is a good idea. It's at least a good reason to create a
directory for it in order not to collide with other READMEs. ;)
