Adding directories to the /usr sub-space generally gets bogged down into
'You are polluting my name-space' arguments which get no-where because some
of the people getting angry is having to live with some 3rd party rules and
regulations which stipulated how things look and will only get updated once
a decade or so. [The same goes with subdirectories in /usr/bin etc where it
causes similar problems.] There tends to be no 'general' case which works
unless it gets 'agreed' upon by some outside of the distro body that
publishes 'versioned' standards.
