Yes, I was thinking of cluttering the root of the installation.
But I was also thinking only in terms of one (maybe two) sample
config files, not a whole lot.

I'm definitely not a fan of adding another directory.  So, if we're
not going to place them in the root, I think that sample configs
ought to go in local/, scripts/, or cookbook/ .  If we need a pointer
to the samples, we can create README or INSTALL files in the root.
