Background
This feature aims to reduce the barrier of adoption by people with less tech knowledge of HD mods.
To use finished texture packs in emulators is always required to do some tinkering, I'm sure there is some very valid technical challenges to solve to provide HD features but this increases the barrier of adoption by people with less tech knowledge.
Implementation suggestion
Let's Imagine a rom contained in file "a.zip" is loaded.
If folder "a HD Pack" is found on an adjacent directory or inside the zip file loading the pack would make sense to end users.
If inside the zip file contents could be mapped in memory and if a folder is found it can be loaded on demand requiring less memory.
