Hi Pierre,

personally I like this idea. On the other hand one could argue that such
functionality does not belong inside SW. But as rpms are pushed and
services get updated this would be very handy if these functionalities
are connected.
E.g.
update rpm A with service Ad. Schedule update _and_ restart of service.
install rpm B with service Bd. Schedule install _and_ activate service

But you you please elaborate point 2? Are you speaking of disk
partitioning or am I getting this wrong?

Regards
Patrick
