    Looking through etc, there are quite a number of files which I think
    would get a better chance of being read if they were located in doc/

We could put them in doc/etc in the source tree, but
install them in the place specified by data-directory,
as if they still were in etc.

Do you think that would achieve the benefit you have in mind?
