That would make it impossible to purge usrmerge after install, which would
be unfortunate.
For my personnal case, On a NAS with only remote access, repartioning on the
fly is a bit tricky and that has been live for about 8 years...
What is your plan? Keep running sid on your NAS until 2 years from now and
then never upgrade again when unmerged /usr is completely unsupported in the
stable release?
Avoid to make the merge as long as possible until everyting is fixed
everywhere. Recent changes did broke various things if I look at
critical bug. It also broke at least my laptop with no way to enter X11
(and here / and /usr are already merged).
The location is incorrect anyway unless upstream kernel explicitly makes
a change.
I do not mind deciding everything should be in /usr but as pointed out
there are other project that should adapt.
