Has someone already tried it?
I'm not sure EXT3 is a good idea on flash memory, the journal would reduce the lifespan with little to no gain.

Personally I am considering deleting MyDocs AND Home/opt then just having a large /home partition, so I never need to think about it. Then just have a microSD card mounted as mass storage for those times its handy to slap things on from Windows.
