FWIW, I fully agree. 

This is how I expect upgrades to Jessie and new installs will be handled. I 
also think installing with legacy or less widely used initsystems should be 
well hidden (and probably explained in the manual).

I guess a good opportunity for contributors not captable of extending d-i to 
do this, is to contribute patches to the manual.
