In init scripts, I can do that. In a systemd unit, I cannot. If I can,
this brings an ugliness to systemd units I would rather not have, as
this would mean losing one of the nicer systemd features. It just
saddens me that I have to introduce ugliness because my upstream
doesn't share my opinions of prettiness.
