This seems reasonable to me.

The images in etc/images/... are all installed in a similarly named
directory, so it makes sense to put them together in the source
directory too, but the nextstep images are not installed in that place.

It seems reasonableand for the nextstep code to do the same thing with
its files (keep to-be-installed-together files together in the source
directory too).
