What if the "Stable Tag" field in the readme could specify a  
directory instead of just a tag name?

Stable Tag: 2.1/sub-directory

would result in tags/2.1/sub-directory/ being packaged as the  
download zip.  For the "Other Versions" section of the plugin  
directory, we'd probably still package the whole "root" directory  
(tags/2.1/) because we can't know if all tags have the same directory  
structure.

Would that help with these issues?  Thoughts?
