I was wondering how possible it would be to considering adding to the policy 
that a single runlevel's symlinks be left out of updating from packages. 

After running an update of 200+ packages or so, all the rc?.d directories are 
re-polluted with symlinks i've destroyed. This is a big problem on my 
workstation, where I may only want mysqld up for a few hours while I check 
something, for example. 

Thanks,
