In the current linux installer, the modules will be decompressed to the
directory where you run the command. So I have to manually to create a
directory named kepler-2.3-rc1 to contain all modules in order to manage the
installation easily.

Can we add directory kepler-2.3-rc1 (or kepler-2.3) above the moduels in the
installer? So people don't need to manually added a directory.

Current the structure looks like:
build-area/current-suite.txt
build-area/install-id.txt
build-area/lib/ant.jar
.......

kepler.jar
kepler.sh
.....
kepler-2.3.0/resources/system.properties/
kepler-2.3.0/module-info/licenses.txt
kepler-2.3.0/module-info/modules.txt
........

We may change to :

kepler-2.3/build-area/current-suite.txt
kepler-2.3/build-area/install-id.txt
kepler-2.3/build-area/lib/ant.jar
.......

kepler-2.3/kepler.jar
kepler-2.3/kepler.sh
.....
kepler-2.3/kepler-2.3.0/resources/system.properties/
kepler-2.3/kepler-2.3.0/module-info/licenses.txt
kepler-2.3/kepler-2.3.0/module-info/modules.txt
........
