Not sure I understand your /boot comment. I have some /boots on the main
btrfs partition and some mounted ext(x)s (can't remember, don't care).
I have quite an (overly) complicated setup. All major directories are
subvols eg. /etc /usr etc so that I can snapshot at almost every level. if
you create the subvol you want as a tree, debootstrap (Debian) and git clone
the stages (funtoo) are quite happy, but I guess you know that.
Transforming from standard directory to subvol is easy with any live distro
(sysrescuecd).
