Absolutely. To be honest, my primary motivation is not boot time, but rather 
on-demand service activation and deativation. It feels wrong to 
call /etc/init.d/foo start|stop|restart from a resource manager, so I'd 
welcome init system support for that.

Boot time improvement will come as a consequence of this, since in OE we still 
boot our embedded systems as if they were desktop systems. All services up by 
default is wrong.
