How would you like to see this implemented, using sysvinit or using a
completly new init system?
Implementing this with sysvinit would need to redo affected links on
every new package install.
Making a new init system would be even worse, imo.
Though an alternative system could be ok, but not as debian standard
init system.

Have you thought of something I missed?
