I think it's consensus at least of the doc team (but maybe I'm wrong).
Everyone wants to install PHP in a single directory which allows you to
install multiple PHP versions on one machine, easily update PHP and not
mess non-PHP directories.

Nowadays, it seems that this is not possible at least with some
configurations. I believe it is better to try changing the PHP itself
than documenting current behavior. The only question is if this is
possible and if it is the right time now (because RC stage of PHP5).

I know. What I am saying is that no application should be installed like
that so we should rather try to change the installation process than
documenting it.
