# rc maintenance
# rc online
this functionality seems useful.
That's... not the word I'd have used.
I'm sort-of-emulating this using custom scripts quite often,
true. custom script that do lots of start or stops are good.
But with N>2 "runlevels" without this subsystem you would need
to run multiple of them or have N*(N-1) scripts.
But i don't like the idea of executing commands to add new "runlevels",
configure it etc.
I like the idea of single config file, or POSSIBLY integrating it in
rc.conf
service_enable=YES
could be replaced by
service1_enable=YES
service1_disable="maintenance blah"
service2_enable="maintenance"
which means service1 should be stopped at "runlevels" maintenance and
blah, and service2 enabled only at "runlevel" maintenance.
