How does 1 directory scale when one day you have possibly thousands of tests? I find this a theoretical question. It took 18 years to arrive at 500 test files. Assuming a linear growth, we get 1000 tests in 2025, and 2000 tests in 2060. People can worry about reorganizing them then.
Personally I'd like to see packages have their own test directory. This keeps things related to each other together. Top level modules of course would have their tests in the top level test directory as they are now.
I don't see any need to subdivide tests further than that.
