Please someone > say so, before I tell others wrong information! Yeah, it is definitely possible to create a new *target*... Simply create a new .target dir, put some symlinks there, and then possibly modify some units to be After= the new target.
OTOH, with *run-levels*, the situation is more complicated, because run-levels are nowadays hardcoded to correspond to specific targets, so indeed adding a new run-level would probably require modifications to the source.
