Depending on what I'm using the box for, I will use one of a couple of different methods.
Having a seperate /home mount point is nice if you plan on enforcing quotas on a shell server. Having a seperate /var/www or /var/ftp is nice for a web or ftp server, repsectively. On a community development system, having a /usr/local mountpoint is nice as you can create a directory structure for everyone to put their "stuff" in. Likewise on a development system that uses cvs, having a /cvs mount point is often a good idea. So, for me, it really depends on what I plan on doing with the box. There are plenty of schools of thought when it comes to filesystem arrangement. It's not strictly a science, and it's not really an art... it's somewhere in between.
