This is not a problem with upstart packaging. /sbin is on the default
path in ubuntu, and hence "init" binary is shipped there and is a
reasonable location for the executable, same as e.g. ifconfig. Adding
"extra" symlinks, is not, since quite a lot of things will not work.
Other binaries that are used by user session upstart jobs are also
/sbin/start /sbin/stop /sbin/reload /sbin/restart /sbin/initctl
/sbin/initctl.

If one doesn't want an upstart managed user-session, one should comment
it out from /etc/upstart-xsessions, similarly lightdm/ubuntu-greeter
should manage to start such sessions without init user-session.
