16 It is about defining proper dependencies and not blindly returning a
17 success result when there were actual failures to start some files
18 systems.
19 So in some ways it is a bugfix. But it is actually a re-design which
20 will overcome shortcomings/limitations in the fstab, netmount,
21 localmount designs.
22
23 Net result should be better configurability, proper error reporting,
24 proper service order startup,...
25
26 Downside, it will likely mean a little migration/transistion.
27
28 I'm in favour of the change. Good work William.
