If that works, it would be great. However, I'm very skeptical. I don't
see how this could possibly work for services of type other than
"forking" (i.e., how to simulate socket/dbus activation). As we hope
that as few services as possible will be using Type=forking, that is a
problem. Having had a brief look through the code/documents I see no
mention of this issue, but maybe I'm missing something obvious...
