This isn't so much a suggestion as a potentially dumb question, but ...

If there was an option to filed-out in a directory structure instead of
a single file, such as:

category/classname/classdef
category/classname/methodcategory/method1
category/classname/methodcategory/method2
etc.

And filed-in in the same manner, wouldn't source control systems be able 
to handle that better?  I know this probably wouldn't work well in CVS 
(since it doesn't support renames), but with Subversion (successor to 
CVS), BitKeeper, or a number of more recent CMS systems, it might work 
better.  Or not?
