I really like the dh-runit approach, with the extra runit-helper package. We
used to have dh-systemd. I guess it's time for a dh-sysvinit?
(Not sure yet on how implementation would work, especially without changing
all init-using source packages. Perhaps dh_installinit could get enhanced
with some hook somewhere.
My € 0,05.
