Would it be possible to provide the files in dists in both locations?
I'm not sure if apt would properly cope with that, but it would make
the transition easier, especially in automated environments, which
generate such stuff and differences are a bit annoying.
The location in pool is always fixed in the Packages/Sources file, so
this can remain the same.
