Personally no, llui is the component controls of the UI interface, such
as textboxes, list boxes etc, thats a nice self contained group as it
is. In theory with a little bit more clean-up that becomes a self
contained GL UI widget set.

The various implementations of floaters and panels could potentially go
in a sub folder, but when there is low level network and packet handling
code in the implementation of some of the floaters its very difficult to
draw the line to divide up.
