Sorry, I wasn't clear. Replace "a local issue" with "up to the various
distributions".
In any case, I'll shut up about this aspect of the proposal because I
just noticed that it doesn't _require_ /mounts ("There may be a new
subdirectory '/mounts'..."). If it's completely optional then I must
wonder why it should be specified at all, though.
