If you're a glassfish user, you are used to it ;)

Sorry I'm late to the party, but I wanted to confirm that this
behavior is used heavily by our (Update Center 2) adopters.
The majority of our users are not on OpenSolaris (data for
GlassFish v3: http://repodata.sfbay/os.php?repo=4). So they are
operating in a world where all images are user images, and
in that environment the default of having pkg operate on the
user image you are in is a huge convenience.

I wonder if there is some middle ground here where user images
are treated differently from system images. For example if
I'm inside a user image, use that -- otherwise default to "/".
