NFSv4 fsid=0 export still necessary?

Hi folks,

several NFSv4-HOWTOs in the net require to export a root directory
with fsid=0 first. Other exported directory trees should be nested
within this root directory and exported with nohide. AFAIU the advan-
tage of the root dir is that the client can mount "server:/somedir"
instead of "server:/remote_mount_point/somedir".

Question: Is the common root directory optional? Since NFSv3 doesn't
support this name space feature, wouldn't it be more wise to omit
the root directory?


Any helpful comment would be highly appreciated
