For me, it is about understanding the impact on Debian of implementing this. I have received interesting replies which address valid issues, like the need for a significantly bigger initramfs (which so far is not clear), but also a lot of handwaving and "I like to do this my way" replies. Everything we do has merits and downsides, our goal should be to find the best possible compromise.

Less use cases is > easier to commercially support I guess. If you have not noticed, with SuSE close to death Red Hat has become the upstream maintainer for quite a lot of infrastructure. If you are concerned about them steering Linux in directions not discussed with the rest of the community, and I am, then I suggest that you start looking hard at systemd, which plans much bigger changes than this one. -- ciao, Marco
