I think it's probably worth moving pg_xlog, because the benefit also
includes preventing a few users from shooting themselves somewhere
vital. That's imo much less the case for some of the other moves.  But I
still don't think think a largescale reorganization is a good idea,
it'll just stall and nothing will happen.
