I'm asking this because our project may also need a separation of /

boot up for recovery and repair even if /usr is missing.
As busybox is an important part of our system, I want to know your
opinions on this issue.
IMHO, try this:
Install busybox at /bin and /sbin, and install all applets (either
symlinks or hardlinks) in those dirs.
Create /usr mountpoint.
Make /usr/bin symlink to ../bin
Make /usr/sbin symlink to ../sbin
In your "usr" partition which gets mounted at /usr, make symlinks for
each busybox applet to ../../[s]bin/$APPLET
Now, before you mount /usr, you still can access any busybox
/usr/bin/$APPLET, and when you mount the real /usr, it will hide the
directory symlinks, but the symlinks to each applet will take their
place, and you still have access to them.
