Most filesystems can cope with it. But thats not the reason for the  
move.

IMO the config menu and dir structure should try to match. Its a lot  
faster to type: "ls package/editors" then running "make menuconfig"  
and going thru the menus to see if a editor package exists, or you see  
a package in package/ but when you try look for it you cant find it  
because its hidden in some submenu or worse, hidden because some of  
its 'depends' are not selected.
