Unless I misunderstood this and referenced threads, all this agro is being 
generated because udev devs decided to give primacy not to the linux fs and 
prevailing FHS conventions, but their udev code and what may have been an easy 
workaround for them?

Given that I do not understand the ins and outs of udev, or the way gentoo and 
upstream manage such proposals and ultimately accept changes, why don't gentoo 
devs raise alternative options with the Fedora dev or who ever had this idea 
upstream that udev code effort is more precious than all the workarounds 
(initramfs, repartitioning, etc.) that some of us have to go through?

The alternatives I've read so far that advocate the avoidance of the 
imposition of an initramfs or merging /usr into / for the sake of a udev 
design choice, seem more 'intelligent' to me - in a gentoo principle sort of 
way.

On the other hand, for a binary distro the udev dev approach would of course 
seem less disruptive and therefore our small gentoo user base may need to 
shout really loud to be heard.

Do we get to vote on this?  Can we make a difference other than venting here 
and in the forums?
