Well, Fedora is going to systemd, which seems more designed for desktop/laptop users, where speed of a boot seems to be the most important goal, so I suspect RH will get there too.
systemd will be much much more once it is done.
From http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/systemd.html :
A central part of a system that starts up and maintains services should be process babysitting: it should watch services. Restart them if they shut down. If they crash it should collect information about them, and keep it around for the administrator, and cross-link that information with what is available from crash dump systems such as abrt, and in logging systems like syslog or the audit system.
Compare systemd to Solaris Service Management Facility. Solaris SMF is a very nice and useful part of Solaris. A lot of similarities between systemd and SMF. Solaris is mainly a server OS.
