I'm pushing for the same hierarchy for the GTK port in
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97562
I also agree that keeping all expectations in one TestExpectations file and
using WK1/WK2 modifiers would bloat that file and considerably affect
efficient work with it.

Personally, I don't have any need for these additional modifiers, I'd
rather see wk1- and wk2-specific fallback directories with their own
TestExpectations. While not strictly related to this, I'd also like someday
see Chromium port moving to a similar organisation of their baselines, in
place of using many platform modifiers which could then be removed.
