OTOH /extras/ (3a above) is what the kernel developers have currently blessed, but the flat structure is irritating.
Agreed. But if that has some sort of blessing, I think it would be good to either follow the blessed structure, irritating or not, or not to install into this dir at all. I would personally go for the latter :) (and just use updates/ for everything at least until extras/ becomes a more prominent "standard").
By the way, you used both extra/ and extras/ in your message, I assume only one of them is "correct"?
It seems that alternative 2 in my original mail (updates/ with mirroring the dir structure from kernel/ where applicable) has received most +1's so far.
