[webkit-dev] More thoughts on cleaning up the root directory

[Hajime Morita]

Hi, thank you for leading the reorg.

>  Platform/ (was WebCore/platform)
I'd like to keep platform directory under WebCore if there is no strong reason.

Classes under WebCore/platform have WebCore namespace,
and the boundary between platform/ and rest of WebCore isn't clear for me.
(For example, there is rendering/RenderThemeMac.mm and
platform/qt/RenderThemeQt.cpp)
We also often change platform and non-platform classes at the same
time, that implies these tight coupling.
So having these classes under same top directory will make the
changelog more readable.

Regards.
