A more evolutionary approach. A de-boilerplating of SysV and perhaps
an outsourcing of process shepherding to something along the lines
of runit.

Definitely not a tightly coupled process set hooking into everything
from DBus to cgroups.

All the well-known arguments in favour of systemd. I know them by
heart, and this discussion has gone back and forth enough for all
of us. You know the counter-arguments as well as I know the pro
arguments, so I think it's no use in turning another round.

Perhaps we must accept that there are different philosophies here,
without hating each other :-)
