If you're going to use a real scripting language to implement initscripts, why not use one that is Essential: yes already? Try 'apt-cache show perl-base|grep Essential'. You'd still have to move it to /bin rather than /usr/bin, though. Also, I'm not sure whether moving away from bash and towards another scripting language is going to really make it be faster.
