This is a great move. Thanks for driving this.

May I suggest instead to adopt the same format already used in the WPT
repository, with shortnames at the root (eventually containing a test plan
within each directory).

Suggest you'd bring that up on public-test-infra@ asap.
All tooling built around WPT assumes specs are at the root of the
directory, using their shortnames. So including the CSS repo as a submodule
won't help you much here, unless you fix both open-source tools AND lobby
implementors to fix theirs (WPT is well on track to be part of most if not
all browser vendors CI environments in the near future).
Why not simply merge with the WPT repo? What technical issues prevent this?
