Dependency based boot system was a release goal for Lenny. I don't recall why it didn't make it, but AFAIK missing or incorrect dependency informations in the init.d scripts have been fixed. Also, I wouldn't have suggested this without testing. I have used insserv on various machines since lenny was still testing without any problems.
