But do we really need all that complication? Couldn't we just leave
the initscript of each init system in a different directory and *tell
the init system* where they are to be found? This will allow a much
easier coexistence of different confs.

Basically, everything related to sysvinit, stays in /etc/init.d, and
sysvinit knows it has to look there. OpenRC stuff stays in
/etc/openrc, and openrc knows it has to look there for its scripts.
WFTinit stuff will stay in /etc/wtf, and WTFInit knows it has to look
there for its stuff. We add the next-init-system, it will have its
scripts in /etc/<the-next-init-system-damn-name>.

No files to be moved around. No need to update any symlink.

I am sure it is a too naive proposal, for reasons that I don't
understand.
