Better to have a final decision than an interim solution :-) These
things have a habit of sticking once they've been adopted.

We'd like 64 Studio to be the first distro to adopt the shared
resources package. Presumably though, if you want to put fonts in
there, they won't be under /usr/share/create. What about putting the
various objects in their own directories, eg /usr/share/palettes and
so on? That would appear to be a more generic solution.
Whatever you decide, please, please make it LSB 3.0 and therefore FHS
2.3 compliant:
