Sounds like you're advocating InitKit to build upon init[ng] being
"init[ng] for sessions".
And it intuitively strikes me as a good idea.
With the percieved slowness in session start discussed in other
threads, the parallelizing nature of especially initng could be put to
good work here. (Or I misunderstood the details entirely.)
