OK -- that doesn't work... (:-()
I set up a package as I described, (using a work folder with the desired
tree structure), intending to place a link in /boot/system/settings/synth,
but that folder is not created by package installation.
Here's a list of the package:

So what am I missing? Can't the PM system put stuff in settings?
Something must be able to, because there's a lot of default stuff there.
