Sure, (thanks for the clarification on the NEW status, I didn't know
that meant it wasn't necessarily being actively worked) but I would like
to see this solved for anyone building a system with meta-networking and
without systemd.  Unfortunately I don't think I'm the person to make the
updates to systemd.bbclass I know very little about systemd in general
and nothing about systemd.bbclass.

I was a little less averse to taking this workaround (I see it purely as
a workaround until a solution is implemented) since there's precedent
and since the spot that Chunrong is changing for dnsmasq has a very
similar construct immediately following for dbus.  I would prefer,
though, if we do take this kind of workaround, it be done everywhere (at
least in meta-networking) in one operation so it's easy to back out
afterward.

Chunrong, do you want to propose a solution like the one referenced in
the above bug?  Or even the one originally suggested by Paul in the bug?
Or does someone else on the list have a WIP on this item?
