it would be "cleaner" to my taste... so everything etch related is under
etch... it is the same issue as with svn organization -- either you keep
projects on top level and trunk,tags,branches below each project, or you
have trunk/tags/branchs on top of the projects. Imho the former is
nicer since everything project related is within the same directory.
