There are actually two options for us according to upstream. One is the
one you are talking about -- mounting /usr from an initramfs before / is
mounted. The other is to mount local file systems, if setups are simple
enough, before we start udev. I could set this one up easily enough just
by moving localmount to the boot runlevel.

Can we discuss both options?
