Sure, I organize things by directory. And with the new file viewers/modeling
programs that's no problem, as they can still find everything OK (mostly).
The only problem is with LDraw and LEdit, which are "dumb" and need the models
to be in a pre-ordained place - unless you specifically specify(1) directory
paths within the .dat file. Which, in general, is not a good idea to do.

1. 'specifically specify' - is that grammatically allowable? Sounds and looks
odd to me.
