SuSE, openSUSE OpenSUSE 10.3 Alpha1 has been released. "Since the openSUSE 10.2 final release, the most significant changes are: GNOME has been moved to /usr (lease do test especially updates from older distributions); KDE updated to KDE 3.5.6; Linux kernel updated to 2.6.20 (no Xen support enabled for now); pattern for minimal text install; update of OpenOffice.org to version 2.1.3; the whole distribution is build now with -fstack-protector to better guard against some buffer overflows; and much more."

LSB has nothing to do with directories. If you're thinking of the FHS, it's rather more FHS-compliant to put the DEs in /usr. This is what we (Mandriva) and Debian do at least, I'm not sure about Ubuntu and FC.
