With regard to the redesign, I've noticed an ongoing method of derailing
systemd discussion. I'm only going to digress from the mailing list for
a brief moment to point out this recurring format:

User1: "I don't like systemd that much because of reason X" (where
reason X may or may not be a legitimate reason to dislike it)
User2: "Go design a better systemd"

Notice how the discussion is turned back to systemd directly. It's
always "go re-invent it", not "make something different". I just wanted
to point that out.

P.S. because of the flammable nature of this topic, please, do NOT
respond to my posting on the mailing list; if you want to respond, send
an email.
