freeze exceptions for accidential systemd entanglements?



#732054 has util-linux shipping a systemd timer which can trivially be
replaced with a cron.weekly script. (Incidentally the systemd
integration is a bit broken, see #767194.)

I'm surprised to see this happened, and doubt there are many other cases
like this. At least there are apparently no others involving timers
currently in the archive[1].

How would the release team feel about a freeze exception for this
specific case, where a 2 line cron.daily script can replace the timer,
and get SSD trimming happening consistently whether or not systemd is
used?
