If a plugin used to have a folder /images/ and its now called /img/ it'll remove the images folder and use the /img/ folder.
It simply uses whatever the latest zip file gives it.

I agree that it can break the site when someone views a page half way through uploading, Thats why the file/folder is deleted, so its not loaded (Generally the files in the root -- ie the plugin file -- are the last ones to be written to the drive).

If a plugin file changes location, Then it does NOT get re-activated, ie. if /plugins/joes.php was activated, and the new version was /plugins/joes/joes.php, joes will no longer be activated, the user will have to go off and re-activate it.
