Even though I'm quite reluctant to add root directories in general,
this one sounds like a sane idea.  The name is generic enough to
my taste, so we can hope we're not going to need to add other
directories for that purpose.  Besides, anything that can help us
catch up a bit on the HAL side is good in my opinion.  So, this
looks good to me.

Cheers,
Maxime
