I don't see the problem.  The runtime could be all of /use and the app
could be a symlink living in /app that points at /usr.  The latter
could be created on the fly in a tmpfs.

Or the flatpak runtime could learn to accept a special type of
manifest that just says to run /usr/bin/whatever and not worry about
/app.
