As long as there is only one linux install and only one /usr partition ..
this scheme will work like a charm... what happens when there are two or
more "/usr" labeled partitions ?

I'm guessing that it'll just pick the first one that it finds.. so you'll
never be able to boot into the other /usr unless you switch back to good
old /dev/hdxN notation in your fstab.
