src/site/\/ source content *.\
makes it hard to maintain content in a directory with multiple formats

supporting src/site/source content *.\
could ease maintenance

we need to define what to do with site.xml

Research direction

Start by reading the linked DOXIASITETOOLS-363 issue and tracing how src/site// source content and site.xml are currently handled. Define the expected behavior for a shared src/site/source directory, including site.xml and cases where multiple formats use the same extension; done requires that behavior to be agreed before implementation and validation.
