   * New patch 34_debian_fixedscripts to hardcode a few script sequence
     numbers, to let the generated boot sequence be more like the

 Provide default sequence numbers for a few well known scripts, to make
 the generated boot sequence more closely match the original one.
+
+It is not obvious that this is a good idea.  It might make the boot
+sequence less optimal (as in less scripts can run in parallel), and
+might affect the runtime complexity.  The rationale for doing this is
+that it might make the boot sequence more familiar for those that knew
+the old sequence, and that Petter Reinholdtsen claim to have seen some
+Debian documentation stating where in the boot sequence some scripts
+are expected to be located.  The document referense is yet to be
+recovered.
