I wasn't in all the the ARB related sessions, so perhaps this got rediscussed 
in a session I didn't attend, but my recollection was that the idea for 
Maverick was to put everything in /opt except for things like .desktop files 
that need to be in the user's path to work and to drop those into an extras 
specific location that would be in the user's path, but not the system path.
