I'm not sure you understand. The idea for #5 is that you do
something like:
./onstartrun -l2 myinitscript.sh
Then this 'onstartrun' thing (which is distribution specific)
handles putting myinitscript.sh wherever it needs to go to be started
during run-level 2 (-l2). Of course, this might not be good enough, but
it's certainly better than the guessing that happens now.
Personally I think having a standard init scheme would be better,
with defined directories and such, but this is better than nothing.
