Going systemd is not an option. It only works on a subset of the systems supported by Debian.

Dunno about upstart - that may have the same problem.

So the only thing that will actually work across ALL supported platforms is SysV. But you've got to give people the OPTION of the others.

Cheers,

Different systems could have a different default init system. After all, they already have a different default kernel.
