It's fairly clear that whenever OGC appears it must be identified, so the separate 
folder idea is out since when someone is looking at the source code they must be able 
to identify the OGC.

I'm sorry Alec, but I find this statement rather confusing. You are assuming that 
source code must be released with OGL software. 

Is this really true? Since the OGL doesn't mention software at all why does everyone 
start with the assumption that the source code has to be released open?

What if the software wasn't released with source and a PDF file was destributed with 
the binary that contained all of the OGC? What if all of the OGC were in text files in 
a subfolder? What if all of the OGC content was displayed in red?

If content providers today can distribute a PDF file without the original source that 
produced the PDF why would a software developer have to release his/her source for a 
binary executable?
