You talk about non FHS systems, and non debian people
installing stuff, I assumed non debian systems were being considered
here.

You want to clutter with all this junk, including making
people modify non automake build procedures, all for non FHS
installs, and you now say that a modified dpkg that can install in
other locations shall not be a part of a sane debian system? You want
to modify 5000+ packjages, some non trivially, and you think that a
modified dpkg is too onerous?
Am I missing something here?
