What about shared libraries? /usr/lib

An idea could be to adopt the *BSD style to separate system shared
libraries in /lib and /usr/lib and put userland libraries
in /opt/lib and /opt/usr/lib.

By doing this system and userland could placed in different pools
allowing a split like make system and make userland.
