I can also put this into a variant if we don't want to violate mtree by default.

A user might have installed macFUSE from their website. We don't want to mess with that. It's this way on purpose.

This step needs to only be done once and never again. I don't think we need a variant for it.

All files being handled my MacPorts would eliminate the possibility of a broken symlink if the user removes the port. Also better user experience.
Just my 2 cent tho, I'm not going to force it if you think it's really unnecessary.
