Since arch general is under moderation, I forward a mail to this list. Instead of shooting the developer/s who introduced the concept of drop-in directories IMO an announcement would be appropriate.

Also, please don't double post your issues. Give people time to actually respond. No need to post to arch-general, if you brought this up before. This is not an instant messenger service.
PS: Independent of what is required for a realtime (or the old audio) group and that there is no issue when using limits.d/file_with_a_higher_number.conf , I still question that '@users - memlock 1024' should be set by package. I doubt that a default 'memlock 1024' for the 'users' group is a good choice at all.
