Well, there is already such a package for runit: runit-services.
Of course these runit scripts wouldn't be in a package called orphan-sysvinit-scripts.
That package is fot the sysvinit init system.
I think it is useful to have the various init-script packages labelled with the
name of the init system they are for.
