Scripts for /etc/init.d or /etc/rc.d

Packages like apache, flexlm, and ssh install servers that should start at 
system boot time.  I don't see any support in Sidai for installing scripts 
in /etc/init.d, /etc/rc.d, etc.

I did see Sidai packages like hp-rc.d-config and 
solaris-rc.d-config.  These modify or replace some standard startup 
scripts, but don't handle the server application startup scripts.

Will described his vision for rc.d scripts in "Higher-order (and 
first-order) packages" 
<http://ark.sourceforge.net/pkg-mgmt.html#pkg-orders>, but I haven't found 
any implementation yet.

Am I missing the obvious again? :-)
