I wasn't the one complaining about missing /usr. (though the original
poster did have some valid points.)
Never the less, your solution is less then ideal.
In most cases, I don't have physical access to the target machine.
I access both Grub and the machine console over a serial link.
The service manager must be allowed to operate with /bin only. Nothing
else.
(Let alone fixing it if things go terribly wrong.)

So, again, if you are going the XML route, you you must find a solution
for an initrd and/or /usr-less machine.
