I do. invoke-rc.d support is *mandatory* now in Debian, which means that
for Sid and Etch you can write a policy-rc.d file that forbids starting new
daemons before you configure them.
There are no such scripts packaged yet, although they are quite simple to
write. See package policyrcd-script-zg2, and the file
/usr/share/doc/sysv-rc/README.policy-rc.d.gz which is distributed by the
"sysv-rc" package.
