 Yes, it makes sense for things from misc-utils/.

 But... I don't think it makes sense to link /sbin/cfdisk with
 /usr/lib/libncursesw. The stuff in /{bin,sbin} should be independent
 on /usr.

 Note that move libncursesw to /lib doesn't make sense because all
 locale data are usually in /usr/share. Maybe we can move cfdisk to
 /usr/sbin (because it's user-friend and more high-level util, ...).
