My point is... well, there are two.  First is, it's configurable already:
you can comment out parts of the rc script you don't want, or you can not

We want to have the system rc scripts "no touch" scripts, don't we?

set linux_enable in the first place and do things it would otherwise do
for you by in the usual manner - add the modules to loader.conf, add a
line to sysctl.conf etc.  The script simply provides a shortcut to match
what 90% of users want.

I agree.

Second, in order to implement something properly, I need to understand
how it's going to be used.  I guess I worded it quite badly in the
previous mail; it's wasn't supposed to sound like "Can you give me some
use case because I think you're wrong", but rather a "Can you give me
some use case, because without it I have no idea how to design it to
fit it".

What about a config variable which enables or disables the mounts? That way we don't have to modify the rc script to get back to the old behavior in cases were we need it.

Bye,
Alexander.
