Can you transplant the X hierarchy somewhere else? I suspect not.

Can you move /usr/share/gnome-* somewhere else? I suspect not.

I am not sure if we actually want that. I don't see any advantage
in that. But please, go ahead. 

The only place that *might* be useful to be shifted around is
TEXMFSYSVAR ... anything else I don't want to be allowed to moved.

Best wishes
