I presume there is a "Beware of feet!" sign nearby? :-) Seriously, we use this at yahoo in a massively replicated environment where we can recover anything that gets lost or it doesn't matter if it does (ie: it is a cache of some sort). I think it is good to have this in the base system, because I have seen some pretty bad messups where people have tried to add this in themselves. Having it here should reduce the opportunity for screwups when people edit /etc/rc manually.
