    This proposal doesn't directly address usrmerge, and the fact that new
    Debian installs have been installing systems with top-level symlinks
    for two stable releases now.

    The only proposal I've seen from guillem which directly addresses the
    usrmerge merge is to attempt to rollback the clock by two stable
    releases, in direct contravention of the decisiopn made by the
    technical committee.
