modifying mgar to support this is IMHO over-engineering.

I just don't see the benefit of a script, and I do see an issue (being non optional as part of another package). I like stuff to be properly referenced by pkginfo, unless it's an editable configuration file. Installing a new package, I would certainly prefer it using proper system tools to modify /usr than having a script go tinker with it (and have to deal with -R, zones, whatever). Why bother? There's packaging already. Why does it shock you to use a package to install things in /usr?

AFAICT, mgar *should* support it already, since the mechanism is there. It's just either a little underdocumented or not quite polished. So that should be clarified.
