 Yeah, I thought about that, but was not sure if it's really a good idea.

 First, within BIND 10 there's no ambiguity whether we say "dns" or
 "dns++", so the latter is a bit redundant.  Also, "+" requires a shift key
 to type in many keyboards, and I'm afraid it may make developers irritated
 if they find they need to push the shift key every time they try to open a
 file under the libdns++ module (I'm half joking, but half serious, and I
 know completion may help).

 Besides, as for consistency, we are already not so consistent: the library
 name under src/lib/config is libcfgclient (although renaming this may be
 less controversial).

 So I'm going to commit this branch as is, and then send a note about the
 directory name to the dev list in case someone has a strong opinion or
 compelling argument for either way (I suspect not, though).
