Which we would call /usr/opt.  We really need something like this since 
zones hit the scene (with /opt
being part of root).

(Actually, I think the zones project should have taken on the huge job 
of making /opt a "magic mount
point" like /usr is but that didn't happen and isn't likely to happen.)

However, this diverges from the discussion at hand.
