I second this. IMHO it is more important to enforce that the mounts
below the topdir are named after the subsystem and only mounted
once for each subsystem, avoiding the multiple-subsystem mounts,
which are a funny way of doing things but in my experience useless.

I have used this hierarchy under /cgroup with libcgroup and
CGFreak in the preliminary Fedora packages and it works like a
charm.
