And that's what (well, among other things) makes UNIX(TM)-like systems so much
better than other OS'; you can mount anything anywhere you want. You could put
/usr/share on another partition, or even /usr/share/apache2 on /dev/hde4 and
/usr/share/horde on /dev/hda9. It may not be pretty, but since when does 
pretty
have anything to do with servers?  And "it's pretty" is definately not a good
reason (IMO) to change a standard. :)
