Or in the systemd ebuild =P
I'll drop this, I've made my peace:
* adding another configuration file is inconsistent with every other
openrc service
* having two configuration files is confusing, since it looks like one
of them just doesn't work if the other is populated
* two code paths to maintain, and you'll eventually want to deprecate
the consistent /etc/conf.d location (more news items...)
* appropriating someone else's file like we did with LINGUAS can
cause problems if they decide to change its meaning
* handbook and other documentation updates need to happen
* no benefit put forth so far, other than that it's the same file that
systemd uses, which is true but not beneficial as far as I can tell
