I don't think there is any advantage to work around the dhcpdiscover
boot delay by using daemons that bring up networking later. Several init
scripts (like ntpd) rely on networking and have a dependency on this.
Now when we bypass it, they simply fail and try later. This is not a
clean concept.

If we need networking during boot, we shall wait until network is ready
(or encapsulate all network related processes and run them in
background)
