Summary: Please include systemd service file

Initial Comment:
Hello,

I created a systemd service file for privoxy.
systemd is a sysvinit replacement (see [1] for more information).

One of the goals of systemd is to encourage standardization between different
distributions. This means, while I also submitted a ticket in Debian GNU/Linux,
I would like to ask you to accept this service file as the upstream
distributor, so that other distributions can use the same service file and
don’t have to ship their own.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thanks!
Best regards,
Michael

Message:
Thanks for the submission, but nobody around here is using systemd so we
can't support (or endorse) it.

As a FreeBSD user I'm tempted to add that systemd currently isn't relevant
for this project.

Jokes aside, while I'm not familiar with the syntax it's my impression
that most GNU/Linux downstreams would have to modify the file anyway, for
example to adjust the absolute paths, add options like --user and --chroot
and probably the WantedBy directive).

Given that a unified patch is likely to be bigger than the original file,
the gain seems limited.
