I did not say it only handled the kernel events or the early boot, I
said it was most useful in the early boot. The reason I said this is
that the current Debian boot system is slightly broken in the early
boot, because it isn't written to handle a event based kernel. Later
in the boot the current boot system actually work as designed.
