The tree of directory is not related to the layout of the menus in
menuconfig/xconfig. So you can perfectly have a flat tree of
directories, and an hierarchical representation of options in
menuconfig/xconfig.

In terms of directories, we prefer a flat solution I believe, even
though it's true some package groups do have their own subdirectory
(for example x11r7).

Best regards,

Thomas
