Maybe it could be made more general
--subdirectory-filter <from> [--subdirectory-filter-to <to>]
<to> meaning root by default, and allow multiple filters to be set?
You would have to deal with file name conflicts in case some filters
refer to the same target directory, though.
It has already been asked how to split a project into many projects
based on directory boundaries. That'd help...
