I also considered it, but decided against eventually, with the reasoning
that I prefer to have it next to weston so it bugs me every time I try
to auto-complete /package/west<TAB>, enough so that one day I get enough
and kill it with fire and rage.

Seriously, though, yes, I prefer to have it next to the vanilla one, but
that was just personal preference. Had the patch moved it to the IMX sub
directory, I might have left it there.

Anyway, too late now! ;-)

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
