Sleeps in /etc tend to be there for good reasons, and new ones are vigorously scrutinized. If you see any that you think are dubious, feel free to mention them on freebsd-rc@. In the ports' scripts we tend to be more forgiving, but I've worked with several maintainers to apply more effective solutions where there is a good reason to wait for a dependent service to actually be running. This also brings up a good point, any new rc-alike solution we consider must have support for scripts in ports that is at least as robust as what we have now.
