Android is already rooted. Rootfs and data is just on your SD card running out of an image file. Squashfs mushes the rootfs image as a pseudo rom and your data storage as just a mount point I think...

The only thing I can think is to make a mount point for the Apps folder to be on a SD card. It would have to be mapped to a device ID such as /dev/sdb1 if such option is implemented.
