As I recall, even with old boot system, boot order default was always
hotly disputed topc among package maintainer. This ordering default
choice is independent issue from moving to dependancy based boot
suystem. Moving such default took good amount of package script.
I think dependancy based boot system made this a bit more
complicated for some case but made easy for some other case.
Quite franky, complaining here does not make situation better. If you
find some issue to the package such as Documentation etc., please file
bug with constructive proposal.
Thank you,
Osamu
