I don't really have any opinion one way or the other on the rest of the 
points, but I for one personally *like* qt and kde where it is at. I also 
like the structure of having games under /usr. It makes sense, to me, on my 
system. They are logically placed. At this point, only binaries-pkgs I've 
installed are in opt (i.e. vmware, openoffice-bin, and ET). I like it this 
way - I can easily allow prelink to exclude *one* dir.. Whether or not it 
conforms to standards does not matter to me. It makes sense this way, and it 
works well - IMO. 

Optimizations from source and USE settings aside, the one thing I am *really* 
beginning to love are the layouts of gentoo's filesystem. [plea]Please please 
PLEASE don't mess with them too much.[/plea]
