If we mandate that each module should have its own directory
Yes, we do. So far, it seems only Steven does not agree with us in this.
Has anybody talked about using "functional" folders?
If you mean on the admin/modules and admin/settings pages, then yes, this is something I thought of. If we have "system" or "drupal", then groups that are categoriezed (much like RPMs on Red Hat for example: Internet, Games, Development, Office, ...etc.) So, if we have drupal, community features, ecommerce, admin tools, misc, ...etc. Again, this can be a settings in the modulename.ini file category = 'Site tools' The trick is what hierarchy we put in place, and agreeing on such a basic hierarchy. If you mean we group the directories to be like that, then I disagree. Modules already have a place under sites/default/modules, sites/sitehostname/modules or (if we implement it) sites/all/modules, each in its own directory. Things that depend on other modules (e.g. ecommerce contrib) can be under their main module.
