/eg scripts are a nice "hands-on" way of finding out how a module works

No distribution should be without one!
Unless, of course, it has an examples/ directory, which would cause the
kwalitee test to fail. ;) I do think its a good idea, especially with
large, all-encompassing type modules to provide some examples, but
testing for (in effect, regulating) the name of the directory that will
be difficult to do.
Man, you wanna start a religious war or something?
I wasn't proposing to regulate anything, merely document existing
practices. After haved grepped through a fair portion of my local
mirror, at a bare minimum the pattern to match an eg directory looks like
m{/(?:e(?:xamples?|[gx])|(?:Ex|s)amples?|contrib|demo)/$}
If an obvious name is overlooked, I'm sure people will draw attention to
it after the first iteration :)
