No, this isn't academic. There is a precise difference between removing
a service from management and turning it off. It's very simple,
'chkconfig --del <service>' removes the package from chkconfig's
management. 'chkconfig --add <service>' puts it back. 'chkconfig
<service> off' turns it off, etc... If it's removed, you don't want to
see it. That's the way it's advertised to work. That's the way the
manpage reads. And that's the way it works under the distro it was
cribbed from.
