I haven't checked if this was merged to 11, but if so, I think they should also
stay a single conf file in 11 for the same reason.

I think that having the files partially split up is the worst of both
worlds as folks writing config management rules, etc. have to use
different approaches depending on the rule.  I think that is a headache
and would rather have the config either be all in a single file, or all
be split up into conf.d/ so that it is consistent.  I also think that
when splitting up a conf file we should do it all at once so that there is
only one painful /etc merge instead of several of them.
