No, I concur; if I'm just working on my own workstation, this is exactly the way I
do it, sharing one large root partition and all that.
But if there's any uncontrolled access (like, anyone else but me...) I like making
the /homes and /tmp partitions seperate and mount them with the arguments to mount
that tells it to disallow device files and SUID programs and such. This makes it more
safe...and you're right; having /home on another drive lessens the chances of losing
all the user's files in the event of a crash...
