Now that the /usr move is about to be completed, should the components of the default PATH environment variable -- set in /etc/profile -- which are symlinks to /usr/bin be omitted from it? This would cut PATH down from PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin" to PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin".
