This proposition is very much like mine, but this doesn't include the root-reserved memory block. It would be useful to have a small amount of root-only memory, so that you could log in even if you have a process which rapidly creates a memory-hogger processes.
As I noted before, reserving ~4 MB from swap isn't that much..
