[lmi] Should xml files be installed to a separate directory?

Now that we've got all these new xml files, I'm trying to
figure out whether it's really useful to install them (and
our older wxxrc and xslt files) to a separate directory,
like '/usr/share/sgml' or '/usr/share/xml'. IOW, we've got
  configurable_settings::xsl_directory()
for reading these files from a special location, and I'm
thinking of simplifying the code by deleting that. But I
don't want to delete it if it really is a better idea to
use a separate directory when installing under *nix.
(Does anyone really do that for wxxrc files anyway?)

We've been using '/opt/lmi/data' for wxxrc files anyway,
and I'm thinking of just putting all xml files there.
I believe the packages supplied to msw end users are
prepared something like this anyway:
  mkdir /lmi-[date]
  cd    /lmi-[date]
  cp /opt/lmi/bin/* .
  cp /opt/lmi/data/* .
so distinguishing directories isn't important there.
