This is what I want to avoid which was the goal of my original post.

1. Many modules are from git repos and need to live in their own
directory to be updated from time to time, 2. the /etc/spamassassin/
directory can get very messy if you just dump things in there.  Hard
to know what's what, it becomes impossible to maintain.

So I don't see any alternative to keeping such modules in separate
directories like this.

Is there really no way to tell spamassassin where to look for such
modules, like some sort of search path?  I'm surprised if not, and if
not, would something like this be a reasonable feature to add in the
future?
