But polluting /opt/maemo with lots of application directories is
better? If you want to encourage /opt/<provider>/<application> then
<provider> should be some kind of team or individual who's behind
multiple apps.

Using /opt/maemo for anything other than maemo-optify output could
cause confusion, if not problems.
