Btw. did you ever test that your config name changes work also with
config dirs, like /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/?

Don't take this as on opinion about what is the right approach, only
X.org server devs can take a stand (i.e. the discussion should be cc'd
to the appropriate mailing list). This is just a detail that came to my
mind.
