"already". I think those two tickets illustrate the issue very well: they are ~9 months old, nobody is working it implement them, and they went dead after some initial discussion. And the "discussion" that was there was pretty sad. The actual discussion already happened on fedora-devel 15 years ago (for usr-merge) and last year (for sbin-merge) and in the systemd upstream. It's not very interesting to see the old arguments being rehashed. And considering that systemd has dropped support for split-usr hierarchies, the discussion is really over. What I'm try to convey is that the way that we put together Linux systems is evolving, slowly but continuously, and we need documents that describe this evolution. A "standard" that tries to turn back time and slow down this process is not useful.
