New dimension directories in data packs are inconsistent with others

The new dimension and dimension_type directories in datapacks are named with singular names. All other directories (advancements, functions, loot_tables, predicates, recipes, structures, tags) have plural names.

In addition, they only function within the minecraft namespace, with the dimensions registered instead taking their namespace from a folder within the dimension directory. This means where any other data type would be registered as custom:my_dimension if placed in data/custom/dimension/my_dimension.json, instead one has to put it in data/minecraft/dimension/custom/my_dimension.json.

NOTE: Despite being marked as a feature request, this issue was half fixed in 1.16.2 Pre-Release 1. The directories are now in the right spot, but are still named with singular names.

This is a feature request.

What? This isn't a feature request at all, it's a report of a blatant inconsistency, something which has time and time and again been considered a valid issue on this JIRA.

This is definitely not a feature request; this is a problem within the data structure of the game.
