Having a layout 'default (or 'plain) vs 'stow makes sense to me.
I can understand how using this stow layout is nice for stow users, but
the extra "package-name" directory that I had to add makes little sense
to me. I added it because this is what the documentation prescribed,
but I would probably be removing those extra "pacage-name" directories.
Greetings,
