Why not breaking backward compatibility? Create:
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     default         1 Jun 17 10:51 /usr -> usr
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     default         7 Jun 17 10:51 /bin -> bin
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     default         7 Jun 17 10:51 /var -> var

and use
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     default        34 Jan 23 14:51 /command/rm -> /package/misc/spf/coreutils/bin/rm

if you can register it globally at <http://cr.yp.to/slashcommand/list.html>.
