Sorry, these are Ubuntu specific terms, forgot to edit. This meant to
say: we don't have that with read-only or stateless root file systems,
which become increasingly more popular. We do get bug reports in
Debian as well about stuff that breaks r/o root; it's not much of an
issue yet, so if you don't consider this a valid/sane use case just
ignore this bit of the argument (the other reasons are still strong
enough to change this anyway).
