Do we really have to enforce the FHS on users' systems? If we remove all
the symlinks in /usr/doc (which should be all that is in there from
up-to-date Debian packages, right?), check if /usr/doc is empty, and
remove it if so, shouldn't that be enough?
There's no reason even to ask if the admin wants to blow away /usr/doc,
IMO. The base-files' NEWS.Debian could mention that /usr/doc is now no
longer part of Debian, and anything in it can be removed or moved
elsewhere with no ill effects on any Debian packages.
