There is one real advantage to the inittab method. When your X hangs on start, due to misconfiguration or whatever, you don't have to boot from a livecd to remove the daemon from rc.conf, you just have to change your runlevel. Even though it is something you might never need, it is good to know that you have this option.
Or you could just reboot into single user mode and edit your rc.conf. I guess with the runlevel thing the advantage is you wouldn't need to reboot though? DR
