Creating subdirectories in /var/lib/cobbler/snippets works well, just
do 'subdir/snippet' for the name. It should work fine if you want to
have multiple levels like
sub1/sub2/snippet. I don't think moving things to multiple top-level
directories is a good idea.
Again, no it does not work. The hierarchy capability only fully works
within the directory specified in the settings file's snippetsdir.
