How about: 

- If /etc/inittab exists and contains an initdefault line, the default
  target will be set accordingly.
- any other non-comment, non-blank lines in /etc/inittab will be logged as
  warnings.

This leaves a migration path (ditch the file completely) while maintaining
some backwards compatibility. For a number of releases, the file can
continue to exist with a warning in the comments and the release notes, and
then eventually it can go away.
