I think it would help to at least take this through a-full so we have a
higher degree of knowledge in what breaks and what doesn’t.

I didn’t look at the patch in detail and won’t be able to for a few more
days. We definitely need to understand how it affects other init systems,
but it is totally doable, there is only a limited number of them and how
they handle tmp directories and what they expect from them is tractable
research. As long as no one expects RP to do that.
