Not sure about the current state: in kUbuntu 7.10 upstart doesn't support
some relatively basic init feature, I think it was the different run
levels, i.e. I think I was not able to get different stuff running e.g.
for runlevels 3 and 4 or so.
Will this be supported in 1.0 ?

This works just fine in Fedora 9.

Debian, and I guess Ubuntu too, by default setup runlevels 2--5 to be identical, because there's no agreement on how they should differ. If you want different stuff in different runlevels, you'll have to configure it yourself.
