That's not entirely correct since what Michael was seeking was to 
install unit,enable it and started it in the same install packaging 
transaction and you wont achieve that by simply dropping in a preset 
snippet in the correct place afaik + that is something we will never do 
here in Fedora for obvious reasons but he can certainly play with those 
explosives by himself in his own rpm package if he wants to.
