It's a change indeed, but IMHO a correct one. Aside from "auto" and "nofail" there is no other indication whether a file system in fstab should be considered "essential" (in your terms) or not. That's precisely what these flags are for. sysvinit might have not complained about this situation, but that doesn't mean that I'd like to proliferate that bug forever. Hence I consider this a "wontfix".
