No, thats probably overkill. A careful audit is required though, of existing code and future imports from casper, to ensure busybox specific features are used correctly. I think only in very compelling cases should a klibc-utils binary be overridden like in above example. I finally think that the initramfs shell environment is consistent for both when busybox is present or not in initramfs. It makes life difficult for live-initramfs, however, because of the overall size of the scripts...
