Bug Description

I'd like to have the purpose of /usr clarified:

/usr is not meant as a mandatory prefix under which all of a distribution's
packages shall be installed. A distribution may choose to install non-system
packages under /opt/<vendor-prefix>. Distributing non-system packages as
relocatable packages is encouraged.
