I'm on the fence there because I have no specific application situation 
in mind. I just know that in general things appear easier to manage if 
the relevant files are not spread out in too many locations acros the 
server. But for sure a good UI can make that argument disappear.

I don't see a scenario where we would edit tags. Do you?

We're still far away from a definite decision on this I think. Right now 
the only tag in question is the articles one, and it's already in the 
appropriate directory. If we find some sort of a solution for dynamic 
module tag inclusion we could move it out.

I guess on a more general plane the question can be raised as to the 
importance of xsl custom tags in future Xaraya. Right now XSL is a 
barrier to entry in general I think. I'm OK with that personally, but 
others may prefer more custom tags to say more dataproperty tag types. 
Will XSL become more mainsream in Xaraya? For now I don't see it. Thoughts?
