** Description changed:

  Having /usr hidden is not a nice thing to do to firefox users. 
  In firefox, when you select what application you want to use to open a certain
  filetype, you'll have to browse to find the binary.
  With /usr hidden users get stuck and give up.
  
  To reproduce:
  Open firefox
  Edit -> Preferences -> Content -> File Types ->
  Manage -> Select a filetype -> Change action.. -> Open them with this application -> File system
  
  You will now see that only /home and /media is shown.
+ 
+ I am aware of the 'Type a filename' in the upper left corner.
+ I don't think clicking that and typing the location is friendly to new users.

** Tags added: firefox kde
