+1, but it seems impossible now.

If you prefer to continue with SysV, it is your right to create a fork, 
or just an additional repository (starting from F14 code base) with 
traditional SysV init system and hundreds of (now removed) traditional 
init scripts for hundreds of daemons.

BTW, such a task looks quite realistic (even for two, three persons). 
Just trace the main Fedora packages and make needed changes for your 
SysV init system and your collection of SysV initrd scripts. I'm sure 
you will find adherens in this idea.

The continuation of this discussion here is not productive, anyway.
