Yes but it is the root for content,
actually ZODBMount point fakes a Folder on creation time
 and add the mount point on the path.
(see MountedObject.manage_addMounts)

The use case is to let the user define a mount point for a folderish 
portal tool.
I'd like to transparently make that portal tool mounted elsewhere without
 having to move it in another path. (The portal tool has other APIS than 
a simple folder)

I'll just try out to code it, I think it should work.
