Systemd is emacs for booting without extension capabilities - so at
least with no clue.

The whole idea is to put stuff into a DSL which can't be formulated
with a not turing complete language. To build something, which has nice
shortcuts for many things: fine. But that has nothing to do with
systemd.

What you could build is a event system with nice hooks to place your
code. And you could use that for many things, when it's damn simple and
fast.

But systemd is everything but not stupid simple. It's only stupid.

Best Regards
Oli
