What problems are you anticipating, especially in light of the fact
that many distros actually do it this way already?
I don't really have a problem with making it optional or the default.
It can also be left up to the maintainers, and of course somebody
could even fork baselayout/etc if they wish and virtualize it in
@system. Most things in Gentoo don't actually require a consensus to
move forward, especially if they aren't defaults.
In any case, what is the point of this thread? If somebody wants to
implement a merged /usr what exactly is stopping them from doing so?
