I would vote against changing paths here.  /usr/share/google is not
that strange.  There are plenty of examples in /usr/share where the
next directory is for a collection of packages:  games, man, java,
gems, etc.  Deviating from upstream in this case just complicates
maintenance of the packages over time.  (If there's some reason the
files should not be in /usr/share at all, that's a different
conversation.)
