I've been meaning to do something like this for some time already; my
itch have been the builtins. The tree size _is_ getting out of hand and
a little more categorization of the sources would certainly help.
Although I'd take a different approach:

	libgit/
	builtin/
	standalone/
	scripts/

I agree on this point.
