Well, the use case given in the old documentation is putting it
somewhere else for disk space reasons. That's really a bad reason
anyway, so without further justification no wonder it withered. Beyond
having better justification, there are other difference here:
* it doesn't need to be _generally_ relocatable, but just to /app
* the complaint about anaconda and yum not understanding it isn't
relevant
