You could always make a separate, FHS-specific package available and see what people think. If the votes are high enough in support of the new layout then you could make a permanent switch.

The problem here is assuming that FDS updates will eventually be pushed into RHDS.

Judging by a good portion of the traffic on this list, a good majority of the FDS users are still learning how to use an LDAP server, so they likely don't understand or care enough to have an opinion about file layout or why it matters in a package as large and complex as this one.

OTOH, the RHDS package is used for critical infrastructure in banks, military, telecoms, etc. By the time those users notice the change and it's ramifications, it will be too late for them to have their vote (other than with their feet).
