I wholeheartedly agree. If you're gonna drink the Kool-Aid, drink it: if Debian wants the pool at X, leave it at X! If you're going to mess with things like that, then you've already moved away from a Stable configuration. A simple symlink gives you the ability to manage your data however you want, and yet remain 100% compatible with Stable.
