Questions and templates both exist in a hierarchical namespace. It can be
arbitrarily deep, and is separated by '/' characters, like a unix directory
hierarchy. Here are the conventions we're using so far to divide up the

package/*- This is the property of a single package, and can be
subdivided however that package wants to.
shared/foo/*- This holds items that are shared between several packages.
"foo" is replaced by a name that relates to all of them. For

shared/news/server to store the news server they use.

shared/news/server- Prompt for hostname of the news server.
shared/mailname- Prompt for contents of /etc/mailname
