Perhaps a shortcoming in Roller right now, our template edit page allows 
alteration of items only in the top-level folder, so CSS and JS is 
placed there along with the velocity templates.  Perhaps part of the 
reason we don't allow going to subfolders is to prevent users from 
editing binary images (which I assume why they're deliberately kept in 
subfolders.)
