The idea seems to be that you'd only implement actions that exist in non-systemd initscripts. As long as people adhere to that, I don't see that we need controls or per-package permissions. And I don't really see why people wouldn't. There are two possibilities here: a given action is commonly performed via "service special-verb" on non-systemd platforms, or it's done some other way. If it's done some other way elsewhere there is no very good reason not to do it the same way in systemd-land. On the other hand, if people are used to "service special-verb", the only likely result of taking that away is that they will think systemd sucks and try to avoid platforms that use it. Personally, having gotten beat up repeatedly over the disappearance of "service postgresql initdb" in systemd-land, I think this is a great idea. regards, tom lane
