It's difficult to even know. It's _so_ easy to do things like logging the
address of a client that connects and not think about having added a
startup dependency on the DNS resolver. In a complex server landscape
circular dependencies happen easily (BTDT), and that's when I really
appreciate upstart's way of declaring "start x after y". (I believe systemd
does the same, which I would like if it weren't one of 500 features.)
