Jeff,
Lets ask your self how many max OH do you have in your environment? On our site we have ~20 servers, mostly development environments with relatively many OH-s on each server.
No one server has more then 10 OH. Is there any reason to add additional directory level to make life easier?
I suppose NO.

I can do it now as well ;)
Just name directory a little bit different, for example:

9.2.0.4.db
9.2.0.4.cl
9.0.4.infa
9.0.4.bif

etc.
