know reason why we disable /srv in packages?
(Did I skip something?)

I do not want to split packages into /etc, /usr/share and /var folders
with kludge symlinking.
Would it be good if I replace /srv/http with /var/www/<package> or
something like this?
If packages start putting stuff in /srv as well, where are we supposed to put OUR data? You don't want to put your data where packages put data as well.
