Good point. However at what point to improving these features becomes where
systemd "bloat. Systemd came up with an "ok" low level solution and then
people keep nitpicking that it could do a better job and track more

emacs mode. [Change to more appropriate languages for the 21st century..
rewritten in javascript and a native Node-VSCode mode.]
