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/
E.g.
CENSORSHIP
COOKIES
copying.paper
DEBUG
DEVEL.HUMOR
DISTRIB
edt-user.doc
emacstool.1
enriched.doc
gfdl.1
GNU
INTERVIEW
JOKES
LINUX-GNU
MACHINES
MAILINGLISTS
MORE.STUFF
MOTIVATION
PROBLEMS
TERMS
THE-GNU-PROJECT

Unfortunately, this means that the path in `data-directory' can't be
used any more to locate these files.

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?

It doesn't seem to worth the trouble.
