Consider this a user vote for this one. Perhaps put the common code in some sort of dependency (the initscripts could source a common base), and let each ?DM install its own init-script front-end. That would allow users (like me) who don't use a ?DM (text login, custom scripts that do some setup and run startx) to kill the initscripts and associated infrastructure (in the common dependency), currently shipping with xorg-server, for them. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
