The metainformation about the actions associated with the delivered objects needs to be preserved. (I always wanted to say that. :-) Maybe a quick fix could be to enhance SMF with an additional state: legacy_run, disabled, maintenance, online, package And give "svcs" a "-t <type>" switch with a behavior similar to "zfs list -t snapshot". So "svcs -t package" would list those services, but "svcs -a" would not. Easy to say, hard to do I guess...
