Yes, we are not going to "fix" the system in a way that causes the user's
configured and installed services to arbitrarily fail to start correctly on
boot because of a network startup delay.

If someone were to submit a patch that implemented this, I would be amenable
to applying it.  I will not, however, be working on this patch myself,
because seeing this message is a *symptom* of a system misconfiguration.

Making a nuisance of yourself to the developers is not going to get you
anywhere.  I suggest you instead try reading the bug log, *understanding*
why this is a configuration error on your system rather than a bug in
Ubuntu and how you can fix it, and letting us know afterwards if you still
think there's something here that Ubuntu should be fixing (and can
reasonably fix).
