I am only talk about config files, the binaries and log should not be in here.
I'm also taling about config files.
Seperate config files is a bad idea. We tolerate it now because a lot of things wouldn't fit into rc.conf (like the sendmail configuration data). For things that can, they should. Your examples were all things that can. I don't understand the benefit of breaking them up, except to have more files to worry about, and more things that need to be writeable (or symlinked and moved, when / isn't writeable).
I think it is easier to setup, let's say FTP, if you know ALL the config files are in /etv/daemons/ftp. And the only place to start the ftpd from when booting, is from /etc/daemons/startup. When you add a user, you have to grand him or deny him access to services. This you do by changing a lot of config files, maybe forgetting some? So a central access file, is maybe not so bad. When more services are added, /etc will "explode". We already got /etc/mail and /etc/ssh, why not /etc/ftp? And then put them in /etc/daemons/, it makes more sence.
