It wouldn't be for a subset of booting setups. It is perfectly possible
for a certain set. If I make a make a kernel package, I can certainly
say that that this package supports direct boot to disk without initrd
and with a separate /usr, with the constraint that it don't support
e.g. lvm and other setups.

Why not agree on a certain set of programs/libs that should be in /bin,
/sbin, and /lib, just to not break my and others packages. That set
don't need to cover all booting possibilities.
