I think the reason that this is a problem in the eyes of some people is
that some of our test frameworks don't use manifests (for example,
mochitests) and rely on make rules. If we fixed that problem, those who
are interested in seeing all of the tests in the same directory can
write their own tools to create whatever directory structure they need.
But the benefits of moving the tests in the tree are questionable for
people who work on specific areas of the code base, which I believe is
the majority of Gecko hackers.
Cheers,
