You are right, I will working on improving my commit messages.

All of this should have been written, perhaps even with more details,
in the commit message.

On a fresh system sure, but on upgrades that is a problem.

I was not advocating for having all the etc files installed, even when you do 
not have that pkg installed.  I am saying it matches what happens today if you 
have, for example, WITHOUT_ACPI=y set.

I agree with that, but was shot down as too big of a POLA violation on this 
list back during BSDCan.

I think it is something we can tackle, but I do not want it to hold up pkgbase 
so I am not willing to merge the two projects.

I do not see why do we need this for the pkgbase.  There is nothing
wrong with installation of the whole clean dist-supplied /etc on
the fresh system.  More, as you noted yourself, the ability to have
all the config files installed is simpler and allows to overview and
prepare configuration without requiring to have the corresponding
packages installed.

rc scripts are definitely not configuration files. They are executables.

I proposed this several times, the /etc/rc.d and /etc/rc.* are very much
wrong place to contain the scripts. For instance, /libexec/rc/ could be
more logical and much more operationally correct: e.g. the scripts can
be updated by make installworld (or some sub-target) and removed by the
ObsoleteFiles.

For pkg base we need to distill things out of etc/ and into places where they 
fit better.  This enables them to be pkged up with the parts of the system them 
belong with and the CONFS= tags them as config files so that pkg will know 
about them and be able to 3-way merge them.  This keeps the flexibility we have 
today with the many WITH_*/WITHOUT_* knobs.  Though it is not without trade 
offs, keeping all of one part of the system together is simpler and makes some 
maintenance easier.

Do you have a better idea of a place for them?  This is the most logical place 
I could think of.

Why all these moves are useful ?

No commit message explained what is the goal of the moves, and why
it is better that way comparing the existing src/etc collection.

Moving startup scripts to sbin/init is at least dubious, IMO.
Startup scripts has nothing to do with init(8), but this is the
second-order question.
