Try this (untested)...

In farmconfig.php (or config.php if a field), set:

    # always search both the wiki.d and exalted.d directories for pages,
    # with preference given to exalted.d/
    $WikiLibDirs = array(
      new PageStore('exalted.d/$FullName'),
      new PageStore('wiki.d/$FullName'),
      new PageStore('$FarmD/wikilib.d/$FullName'));

    $pagename = ResolvePageName($pagename);
    $group = PageVar($pagename, '$Group');
    # save Exalted pages in exalted.d/ instead of wiki.d/
    if ($group == 'Exalted') 
      $WikiDir = new PageStore('exalted.d/$FullName');
   
As I said, this is untested, so I don't know how well it will
work in practice.  But it seems like it should work.
