The advantage of this proposal is that it buys time. Time to come up with
a really good transition scheme. Then, if this really good scheme is
agreed upon, the whole transition can be done between the potato release
and the release after potato. That way, potato doesn't need to be released
as a half-way converted system. Or do you want all packages to use
/usr/share/doc in potato already?
