                To me, ROOT should be described as non-portable and its use should be discouraged. But if people want to write things that refer to the root directory
, the ROOT FileSystemName is how to do it. (They're allowed to shoot themselves in the foot; we just describe the size of the ammo...)

                - Changed "example definitions" to "normative definitions"
- Because of the above change I reformatted the section, moving the text from the Description element to be part of the definition of each filesystem 
name. 
Added security considerations for ROOT.
Should a deprecation note for ROOT also be added?

                IIRC, decision was that Root should be / on POSIX systems, but many systems might not provide it. I suppose it is more of a "It MUST mean this, but 
MAY be absent."

                Add cautionary note to not rely on having ROOT well-known.

                Consider ROOT usage; provide use case or remove
otherwise resolved as
- Make the type of filesystem normative.
- Specify other characteristics (typically shared or not) as informative.
