Bugs happen with every release... I note that it was *not* possible to switch init systems in Wheezy in a supported way (in particular sysvinit is essential and various things get very unhappy if it gets uninstalled), but you seem to treat Jessie as more problematic even though it allows switching init systems? How come? And is "you cannot switch init systems (at all)" to "you cannot switch init systems if you want to run <X>" a regression that takes away choice?
