nope, go ahead.

When say "potentional shutdown problems", to what do you mean?
Because the only issue is that systemd-shutdown code will try to 
"unroll" all mount points/loop devs/device mapper/... in a 
"for-0-to50-do", so lots of non-harm warnings will be displayed. (In 
some way this happens already with initscripts, in a much minor way).
But if you talk about shutdown with network boot (NFS/NBD only), that 
also affects initscripts, are already workaround by always doing a 
copytoram=y

The only thing in my TODO, is to reimplement automatic script logic in 
some way.
