Comment(by bdubbs@…):

 My problem with a symlinked mtab is that I can't tell what the root
 partition is:

 {{{
 $ mount | head -n1
 /dev/sda12 on / type ext3 (rw)

 $ cat /proc/mounts | head -n2
 rootfs / rootfs rw 0 0
 /dev/root / ext3 rw,relatime,errors=continue,barrier=1,data=writeback 0 0
 }}}

 rootfs and /dev/root don't tell me anything.
