mount that /usr , or alter the /etc/init.d/udev-mount to depend on an extra
service, which does nothing else, but mount /usr . With the latter, further
upgrades would just need to keep the extra depend in the init script, long

IMO, initramfs adds yet another black box during server boot. Plus, udev is
getting more and more complex with all its intelligence. And yet another
daemon in memory, something I certainly don't need on my static virtualized
servers.
