Yes but when I'll open a GUI module browser, I'll see test in the list of
modules and not dir1.
BTW, I've tried your suggestion and when I open the module browser I see
something like that:
module1
module2
module3
+aliases
     - test
module4
...

Is there a way to avoid this aliases entry?

Thanks
