I think the "cleanest" way would be to move a lot of xf86Option.c
under parser/. It's really about parsing Options anyway, and half the
implementations just wrap code from parser/Flags.c. So, moving
xf86Opt.h and xf86Option.c under parser/ would seem to be the easiest.

Another alternative is to move the action of automatically adding the
InputDevices under the ServerLayout to xf86Config.c like the video
config. It's a little cleaner to put it together immediately during
the parsing, but you could assemble it later.
