currently we have the following directories for the file adapter:

/var/opendnssec/  (i.e. @localstatedir@/opendnssec)
	unsigned/	the unsigned zone
	signed/		the signed zone

would it perhaps make sense to add an audited/ directory and let the  
daemonized auditor move files from signed/ to audited/ when a zone has  
bee audited?

this would perhaps change how we call the auditor from the signed  
engine as well, just making <Audit/> in a signer configuration tell  
the signer engine to run the signer explicitly on the file in signed/  
when the zone has been signed? (making the auditor run explicitly  
rather than in batch)
