If we make the top-level directory lean enough, we probably can tab

personally.

I however think the directory name "t/" is not our invention but what we
took from somebody else (perhaps Perl?), and I suspect some people expect
to find tests under there since we have had them there for a long time.
If those people are not able to figure out that "testsuite" means where 
tests are, especially within a lean top directory, then we might 
question the reliability of the tests they might contribute.
