For what it's worth, I like the /etc/rc thing as it stands, although
there was mention of supporting /etc/rc.d IFF it existed. I like the
option to run either way, and I prefer /etc/rc{.{conf,local}} and
company as they work right now.
Please do NOT do /etc/rc.d/init.d -- that's a nasty hackery; if you
must use init.d, put it directly in /etc.
Maybe more on this later, but a plea from an old-timer: PLEASE
don't make the sys-V-ish thing the default.
