Not a bad suggestion, however tying in a bindmount where multiple
partitions are involved can have side effects too :S   Basically if
your filesystem on one partition has an issue, depending on the setup
of your /etc/fstab various mounts *may* then fail to happen
successfully.  Init scripts handling local mounts then go
"Arrrrrrrrrrgh!" and *worse* things can happen than just Apache2 and
MySQL not starting up, it is theoretically possible the boot sequence
would stop and ask whether you'd like to enter recovery mode to fix
the issue.  Boooooooo!
