[Webtest] Directory Structure Question & Patch

[Dierk Konig]

I guess, you're right.
The dir structure has become fairly unobvious.

I need a little time to think through the possible implications
concerning the automated build and the distribution. It is a good
opportunity to clean up that as well.

Looks like a busy weekend...

cheers
