I am curious, what is the motivation for this change?

Various levels of breakage in having on chkconfig style script owning multiple daemons. Move to a more per daemon init script and have /sbin/ command to stop/start them all at once if needed once booted up. Allow for the daemons to start cleanly also when switching run levels. Michael Mraka had 3 bugs and so tackled the issue by re-factoring this structure.

A suggestion (which I hope made it into bugzilla) was made last week to put a simple echo "please use the /sbin/ .. " command now when attempting to run /etc/init.d/rhn-satellite.

Do you see something 'bad' in this? Or just wondering about why?
