You said you are a programer: if you really are, I bet that you keep adding buttons, changing behaviours, tweaking UI, and adding steps to the setup process every time a customer asks for a personalization or you make a new version of your software.
At works, the user asks the changes. Thus, I know they agree with it. (And yes, they do complain about slight change in the UI made without their approval..)

2nd: Unlike you, I have looked, even if briefly, at how is structured Calibre before making any complain to Kovid. Just so that I could see if what I thought was a good idea was feasible or not. Unlike you, I've been writing code in a few open-source projects (not many, true, but a couple of lines of code here and there), and unlike you I can easily imagine that adding, at installation, a radio-button list that says "[]choose the Folders' Structure Template or [X] Use Default Folders' Structure" is not a damn huge change, and surely is NOT a way to break what already works".
I can't believe it would be that easy, and no one actually bothered doing it.
