Why to symlink, this is 1/ because it concerns user/admin
configuration,
I get that, but why is a conf file not the right answer? We could even
put the conf file in /etc if we decide that this is a feature that
should be in the base. Having 2 symlinks just seems like overkill.

How will the conf file work? If there's a program like what
mailer.conf uses, sure. If the symlink is directly from sort to
/usr/bin/bsdsort, no so much.

I can imagine a netboot'ed system where the config in /etc/alternates/
is different for individual hosts, which have a shared root.
That way you can have two netbooted hosts with a shared read-only
rootfs, but a ramdisk /etc, with the locally configured mailer,
alternates, etc.
