Comment (by pulkomandy):
X512: it is not easy to detect where a write should go. There already are
shine-through directories (system/var for example), some packages have
writable files, as well. This also adds an extra place to look when
reading the directory, the result is slower access to the disk.
With the current solution, access to the packages *replaces* access to the
on-disk FS, and it is faster. If we still have to access the disk, access
to the packages *adds* time to the on-disk access, and the system will
feel slower.
As for removal of common, you could still boot without "non-packaged", or
even boot with the minimal dependencies of the "haiku" package to get some
kind of safe mode.
