- Dependencies beginning with a '.' (dot) are ignored.
  So you can temporarily disable a dependency moving it to
  want/.name

- Why is the name of the socket "coala"?
  Well, coala could mean 'cinit object abstract layer access', but
  perhaps it's a much simpler reason.

- cinit will start a little bit faster if you omit non needed
  'wants' and 'needs' dirs as they need to be scanned if they
   do not exist

- Currently there is no support to react on 'ctr+alt+del':
   1. It is not handled to switch on / off
      (Linux: See man 2 reboot and /proc/sys/kernel/ctrl-alt-del)
   2. If the kernel handles it and sends signals to cinit
      (SIGINT on Linux) they will be ignored.
      There is no problem in implementing a handler for this signal,
      the only reason why it is not there
      (well, a template is in old/sig_special.c) is that nobody
      could tell me what would be the most senseful thing to handle
      ctrl-alt-del. If you can, I'll perhaps integrate it.
   3. ctrl-alt-del is currently disabled under Linux within
      the service local-tuning/ctrl-alt-del

- cinit ignores the Keyboard request
   Same thing with 'ctr-alt-del': SIGWINCH is sent, but I don't
   know what to do when recieving it.

- cinit does not care about its pid
  nor does cinit care if it is already running

  in serv/cinit.c is a line calling run_init_svc().
  If you call that only if getpid() == 1, cinit will behave like sysvinit
  and refuse to start if pid is not 1.

  Currently cinit has no chance to control whether it's started or
  not as /etc/cinit/tmp mounted again for every start.

- cinit will sleep after respawing if ...

   a) the service did not terminate normally (!WIFEXITED(status))
   b) the service did return a non-zero exit status

- sleeping before rechecking if a service is finished can be optimised

   Currently run_svc() checks every SLEEP_RERUN seconds (default: 1),
   if the service it should start was finished by another instance
   of run_svc(). As run_svc() internally uses nanosleep() for sleeping,
   one could modify run_svc to use conf/sleep_rerun as a nanoseconds
   value. This would add most likely much often checking, but would
   result in faster results from run_svc.
   What's the best value for SLEEP_RERUN is currently unknown.
