Summary:Is it a good idea to use advfs for / and /usr?

People pointed out some more problems, such as:

1) You can't grow the root_domain, just usr_domain

2) Advfs still has many bugs, and when they hit, they
   they seem to be catastrophic.

3) Advfs has to be removed during system upgrades.

4) Advfs has more complexity, which can be vexing during
   disaster recovery.

The advantages are mainly the ability to grow the usr_domain
to deal with /var. However this can be rectified by putting
/var on another disk.
