Hi Niels, Wow. Ugh. Thanks for your elaborate answer. Don't worry, I can certainly live without this feature, and I'm perfectly fine with this aspect being handled as a minor bullet point in the eventual /usr-merge transition plan. The main point of my report was to avoid losing sight of the issue. And you've already ensured that. :) -- Thanks again, Feri
