Can you give an example of what kind of conditions you have in mind?

You need an [Install] section if you want "systemctl {enable,disable}
foo.service" to work.

I answered this in the bug you reported:

For a program to be run very late just before shutdown you can put it
in /lib/systemd/system-shutdown.
Or you can have a service wanted by final.target and run after
shutdown.target (see halt-local.service for an example of this).
