I was about the ask the same question.

The current state of my work doesn't seem to have any issues. You can test it 
by pulling the 'reorganize-source-dirs' branch from my github repo 
(gjanssens). I intend to make a few more minor tweaks before pushing this to 
master.

So I'm interested to hear which tools you believe would have issues.
