I think that's precisely the concern. In the event that F14 goes back
to upstart, the final release will use a configuration that may not have
received much testing. If we want to claim that it's safe to switch
back to upstart after beta, we need to be testing that configuration
now, along with the systemd configuration.
well, feel free. It's still installable. It's unchanged from the last
five releases, though, and we didn't have any particular problems with
the init system in any of those, so I'm not waking up at nights worrying
about it breaking.
