Nope, we decided a while ago that:
1- backend would be isolated to a single libexec directory
2- backend would follow a naming convention: table-*, filter-*, queue-*,
scheduler-*
similarly to login_ scripts, this makes them easier to handle for us
and both code and configuration are simplified as a result:
pkg_add table-foobar
and voila, you can use:
table barbaz foobar:/etc/mail/foobar.txt
this is only possible because we know where things are by convention
