I dont think packages should put files into /srv in the same way as
/var/www isnt used. (And yes, I know that /srv should hold more than
/var/www). Packages should put them into /usr/share (or /usr/lib), and
then adapt/enhance the config of the service (like apache with the
conf.d) to use that part.
The admin then can customize /srv however he likes it.
