That's perfectly allright. That is indeed the way to add something
that needs to be run on boot only (no daemons, just one-time initialization).
The only nitpick I have is that you could/should have used:
update-rc.d wmnetstartup start 60 S .
That makes the link automatically for you. But esp. in the case of rcS.d,
where there is only one link anyway it doesn't really matter.
