Description
Having looked at the WYSIWYG API module, it would be really useful if SWFTOOLS (and any other module that uses libraries) stored additional elements such as Javascript libraries and players in a central location outside of the SWFTOOLS folder. For example sites/all/libraries.
This would mean that when updating the module things don't get deleted and would make version control much better.
Just a thought.

Note that at this point you can manually specify sites/all/libraries as the directory for 1pixelout, flow player etc. However, in doing so there will be errors if you don't copy over the generic audio and video players. There also isn't support for putting 1 library in profiles/profile-name/libraries while others live in sites/all/libraries or sites/default/libraries. See how WYSIWYG is handling libraries as well as http://drupal.org/project/libraries for better examples.
