Cleaning up the config files in /etc (Re: As 2.0 looms)

Could we try to standardize the location of the configuration files
for all and sundry in /etc/conf.d and have all the conf.whatever
files go in there? The problem with having all these configuration
files residing in /etc is the same as with various rc* files -- too
much clutter. /etc/rc.d got rid of the rc* clutter; perhaps it is
time for /etc/conf.d to do the same for config.*? I'm willing to
try to make a patch to do this if it is acceptable to others...
The changes can be done in way that if /etc/conf.d doesn't exist,
we look in /etc as we do now...
