On a somewhat related although not identical note, I've thought for some time that even though I did the initial implementation of extroot that I really am not a fan of the extroot concept.
I'd rather see better support non-root opkg install targets. This means a) Including opkg destinations in library search path b) Putting opkg destinations bin:sbin:usr/bin:usr/sbin in path (doing this only for a normal boot is not big deal because non-squashfs packages are only available on the overlay or something like an ext4 rootfs anyway). c) making sure packages can find things like usr/share other than @ /usr/share a) is one I'm not sure how to achieve on an LEDE system (I'm assuming it's easy enough to tell procd what PATH to use once mount_root is complete) c) also looks like a challenge, barring symlinking AIUI symlinking isn't necessarily a viable option because a symlinking takes up an entire inode == erase block on jffs2.
