official guidelines on the install location of cmake modules?

Basically, wherever *I* want :)

I'd say that the fact that CMake only looks in a set of predefined locations is 
a moot point. Or rather, the fact that is a set of more than 1 location is 
already a sufficient reason to avoid making assumptions on where the files end 
up, IMHO.
Also, cmake can be told to look in additional locations.

To stir up the pot a bit: there is something of a consensus among some KDE devs 
that KDE should blend in and behave as "natively" as possible on each platform. 
If on OS X that means bundling as standalone app bundles, it ought logically 
also mean that the KF5 frameworks be built as real frameworks. That is, bundles 
containing headers, the binary and all required resources (and that should a 
priori be relocatable between the standard locations for such items).
Not that I see a particular value in doing this, but I'd expect that such an 
approach would require rethinking the expected location and contents of the 
cmake files ;)
